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 evocative image captures Georges d'Amboise (1460-1510), a pivotal figure in French politics during the late 15th century. As the Cardinal-Archbishop of Rouen and a trusted minister to King Louis XII, d'Amboise wielded significant influence over ecclesiastical and secular affairs. Seated at his ornate desk, d'Amboise appears deep in thought, his fur-lined robe draped elegantly over his chair. The richly decorated room, adorned with tapestries and intricate woodwork, reflects the opulence and power of the time. The cardinal's mitre rests atop the desk, a symbol of his high ecclesiastical rank. The year is not definitively known, but this portrait likely dates from d'Amboise's tenure as a key advisor to Louis XII, between 1498 and 1510. During this period, d'Amboise played a crucial role in the king's diplomatic efforts, negotiating alliances and treaties with European powers. He also oversaw the administration of the Rouen archdiocese and served as the king's legate in Rome. Despite his worldly success, d'Amboise remained devoted to his faith. He was known for his piety and charitable works, founding several religious institutions and supporting the construction of the Church of Saint-Maclou in Rouen. This portrait offers a glimpse into the complex world of late medieval France, where church and state intertwined, and powerful figures like Georges d'Amboise shaped the course of history.
