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.

Christ in Majesty
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a breathtaking Byzantine painting from the Church of St. John tou Trafu, located in the historic city of Zante in the Ionian Islands of Greece. Dating back to the first half of the 17th century, this masterpiece is now proudly displayed at the Byzantine Museum, preserving its historical and artistic significance for generations to come. The painting depicts Christ in the role of Pantocrator, or the Almighty, seated on a magnificent throne. Surrounded by a nimbus, or halo, and adorned with a flowing beard and long, curly hair, Christ exudes an aura of divine power and wisdom. His right hand is raised in a blessing gesture, while his left hand holds an open book, symbolizing the Word of God. At the bottom of the painting, four symbolic animals, known as the Tetramorph, represent the four evangelists. An eagle, a lion, an ox, and a human figure, each associated with one of the evangelists, pay homage to Christ. Above the throne, two winged angels, with their hands folded in prayer, add to the overall sense of reverence and awe. The painting's intricate details and vibrant colors bring the figures to life, transporting the viewer to another time and place. The use of wood and the wooden panel technique adds to the artwork's textured and tactile quality, making it a true masterpiece of Byzantine art. This painting is not only a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Greece but also a reminder of the enduring power of religious art to inspire and uplift. Its presence in the Byzantine Museum allows visitors to connect with the past and appreciate the beauty and significance of Byzantine art.
