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.

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.

1. Title: "A Glimpse into Ancient Egypt: A Funerary Stele from the Late Period at the Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest" This funerary stele, hailing from the Late Period of Ancient Egyptian civilization (around 664-332 BC), is a testament to the rich artistic and cultural heritage of one of the world's most fascinating civilizations. Housed in the esteemed Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, Hungary, this masterpiece showcases the intricate interplay of religion, art, and writing that defined the Egyptian Empire. The stele, sculpted in relief, is adorned with vivid hieroglyphics - the ancient Egyptian script and symbolic language. The hieroglyphs, meticulously carved, narrate the story of the deceased, ensuring their identity and legacy were preserved for the afterlife. The inscriptions include the names of various deities, such as Osiris, Anubis, and Thoth, who were believed to play crucial roles in the journey of the soul to the afterlife. The perspective in this sculpture is a remarkable example of ancient Egyptian art, with the figures depicted in a three-quarter view, giving a sense of depth and dimension. The intricate details and precise execution of the reliefs reflect the advanced skill and craftsmanship of the artisans of the time. This funerary stele offers a glimpse into the complex religious beliefs and practices of the ancient Egyptians, whose civilization left an indelible mark on world history. The alphabet and symbols etched onto the stele serve as a reminder of the rich linguistic and literary heritage that continues to intrigue scholars and enthusiasts alike. The stele's preservation in the Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest, ensures that future generations can continue to learn from and be inspired by the artistic and historical significance of this remarkable artifact.
