17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 evocative image showcases the enigmatic and visionary work of Domenikos Theotokopoulos, better known as El Greco, a seminal figure in the world of Spanish art history. Born in the Mediterranean island of Crete in 1541, El Greco's artistic journey began when he traveled to Venice to study under the great masters of the Italian Renaissance. However, it was in Spain, where he settled in 1577, that El Greco truly came into his own, creating a distinctive style that defied the conventions of the time. El Greco's oeuvre is characterized by elongated figures, intense emotional expression, and a unique use of color and light. This photographic print captures the haunting beauty of one of his most famous works, a religious painting that embodies the depth and complexity of his artistic vision. The intricate details of the image are brought to life, revealing the masterful brushstrokes and the profound spirituality that lies at the heart of El Greco's art. El Greco's impact on the art world was profound, and his influence can be seen in the works of countless artists who followed in his footsteps. His innovative approach to religious themes and his unwavering commitment to artistic expression continue to inspire and captivate audiences today. This photographic print is not only a testament to the enduring legacy of El Greco but also a reminder of the power of art to transcend time and space, transporting us to another world and opening our minds to new possibilities. Domenikos Theotokopoulos, or El Greco, was a true visionary, a painter who dared to challenge the norms of his time and paved the way for future generations of artists. This photographic print invites us to explore the depths of his artistic soul and to marvel at the beauty and complexity of his creations.
