23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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 exquisite 15th century print, dated 1461, captures the opulence and grandeur of aristocratic life during the medieval period. The image features an aristocrat and his wife, both richly dressed in the fashion of the time. The man wears a fine brocade tunic, adorned with intricate patterns and ornate detailing, while a sign of his high status is evident in the luxurious fur-lined cloak draped over his shoulders. His wife, equally affluent, dons an elegant farthingale gown, accentuated by a delicate necklace and intricate headdress. The woman's most striking feature, however, is her engagement in a leisurely activity - reading a book. In a time when literacy was a privilege, this sign of intellectual pursuits further underscores the couple's wealth and status. The book, bound in fine leather and adorned with gold embellishments, adds to the overall grandeur of the scene. The intricate details of their costumes are a testament to the artistry and craftsmanship of the era. The man's tunic, with its intricate brocade patterns and ornate detailing, would have taken weeks, if not months, to create. Similarly, the woman's farthingale gown, with its voluminous skirt and fitted bodice, would have required the expertise of skilled tailors and seamstresses. This print offers a glimpse into the lives of the aristocracy during the 15th century, a time of opulence, luxury, and refinement. The couple's richly dressed attire, the woman's intellectual pursuits, and the overall ornate detailing of the print serve as a reminder of the grandeur and sophistication of the past.
