FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning limestone bust, believed to represent the goddess Mut, dates back to the 18th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, around 1400 BC. Discovered in Thebes, the cultural and religious center of ancient Egypt, this artwork is a testament to the rich history and artistic prowess of the New Kingdom period. Mut was one of the most important goddesses in the Egyptian pantheon, often depicted as a mother goddess and the wife of the god Amun. The goddess's serene and enigmatic expression is captured in intricate detail, with her elegant features accentuated by the delicate folds of her nemes headdress and the intricate beadwork adorning her neck and chest. The sculpture's fine features and lifelike quality are a testament to the skill and artistry of the ancient Egyptian craftsmen who created it. Mut's bust is now housed in the British Museum in London, United Kingdom, where it continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. The bust not only offers a glimpse into the religious beliefs and artistic traditions of ancient Egypt, but also serves as a reminder of the enduring influence of Egyptian culture on world history and art.
