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 stunning relief from the Temple of Kom Ombo, dedicated to the crocodile god Sobek and the falcon god Haroeris during the Ptolemaic Dynasty in Egypt around the 2nd century BC, showcases the intricate detail and artistic mastery of ancient Egyptian art. The relief depicts Sekhmet, the powerful lion-headed goddess of war, crowned with the solar disk and a cobra. Sekhmet was a significant deity in ancient Egyptian mythology, revered for her protective role against enemies and diseases. Her lion head represented her fierce and fearsome nature, while the solar disk and cobra symbolized her association with the sun and her role as a goddess of healing. The hieratic perspective in this relief, with figures and elements arranged in a stylized and formal manner, is characteristic of the artistic style of the Egyptian civilization during this age. This relief provides a unique glimpse into the rich history and mythology of ancient Egypt, offering a captivating perspective into the beliefs and values of a civilization that continues to fascinate and inspire us.
