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 image showcases a design by the legendary Renaissance polymath, Leonardo da Vinci, for a double catapult, meticulously drawn in the Atlantic Codex (folio 152) between 1485 and 1490. The double catapult, a remarkable invention of military engineering, is depicted with both a bucket and a sling, reflecting its versatility in various siege scenarios. Leonardo da Vinci's innovative design, a testament to his genius, was created during the 15th century - an era of profound artistic and scientific advancements in Europe. The Atlantic Codex, a collection of Leonardo's notes and sketches, is a treasure trove of his ideas, including this intriguing machine. The double catapult, with its impressive size and complexity, is a marvel of engineering. Its reconstruction in modern times has allowed us to appreciate the ingenuity of Leonardo's design, which was far ahead of its time. The intricate details of the drawing reveal the meticulous thought and planning that went into creating this military machine. The National Museum of Science and Technology Leonardo Da Vinci in Milan, Italy, is fortunate to house this significant piece of history. It serves as a reminder of the profound impact Leonardo da Vinci had on the development of machinery and military engineering during the Renaissance. His influence can still be felt in the modern age, as we continue to be inspired by his groundbreaking ideas and inventions.
