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 photograph showcases the awe-inspiring pyramid of Hetepheres I (G 1-a) nestled between the more famous pyramids of Khufu (Cheops) and Khafre (Chephren) at the Giza Necropolis in Egypt. Dating back to the 26th century BC during the Old Kingdom's 4th Dynasty, these architectural marvels continue to fascinate and inspire wonder. Hetepheres I, the mother of Pharaoh Khafre, is believed to have commissioned this pyramid as her tomb. While smaller in size compared to her son's and Khufu's pyramids, it still showcases the intricate limestone casing that once adorned the exterior, giving it a shimmering, golden appearance. The pyramids of Giza, located on the outskirts of modern-day Cairo, are a testament to the ancient Egyptians' mastery of mathematics and geometry. The precise angles and measurements used in their construction have puzzled scholars for centuries, with some suggesting that the Pythagorean theorem may have been used in their design. The pyramids' enduring legacy extends beyond their historical significance. They have influenced art, literature, and popular culture, making them an essential part of human history. The intricate carvings on the pyramids' walls provide insight into the daily life, religious beliefs, and artistic styles of the ancient Egyptians. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported back in time, allowing us to marvel at the ingenuity and ambition of the ancient civilization that built these architectural wonders. The pyramids of Giza, including the pyramid of Hetepheres I, continue to stand as symbols of human achievement and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Egypt and Africa.
