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
1. Title: "The Temple of Kom Ombo: A Testament to Ancient Egyptian Mythology and Craftsmanship" 2. The Temple of Kom Ombo, a magnificent architectural marvel of the ancient world, stands as a testament to the rich cultural heritage and artistic prowess of the Egyptian civilization. Dating back to the Ptolemaic Dynasty, around the 2nd century BC, this temple is dedicated to two deities: the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Haroeris. 3. The intricately carved relief in this photograph showcases the hieroglyphic symbols and the image of a crocodile, one of the most revered symbols of Sobek. The hieroglyphs, an essential part of ancient Egyptian writing, depict various mythological scenes and religious beliefs. 4. The temple's unique design, with its twin halls and mirror-image layout, reflects the ancient Egyptian perspective of balance and harmony. Seated figures of gods, pharaohs, and other important personages are often depicted in temple reliefs, emphasizing their divine connection and authority. 5. The hieratic script, a cursive form of ancient Egyptian writing, is also evident in the hieroglyphs. This writing system was used for religious texts, decrees, and other formal documents during the Late Period of ancient Egypt. 6. The Temple of Kom Ombo, with its hieroglyphs and symbolic representations, offers a glimpse into the complex mythology and rich history of the ancient Egyptian civilization. This photograph serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of this age, which continues to captivate and inspire scholars, artists, and visitors alike. 7. The intricate details and masterful craftsmanship evident in the relief demonstrate the advanced skill and artistic vision of the ancient Egyptian artisans. The temple's preservation is a testament to their dedication and the importance of their work in recording history and expressing their beliefs.
