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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This relief depicts a significant moment in ancient Egyptian history: the union of Upper and Lower Egypt under the reign of Pharaoh Ramses II during the 19th Dynasty of the New Kingdom. The scene is intricately carved into the Great Temple of Ramses II at Abu Simbel, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Egypt. The relief showcases the goddesses Hathor of the South (representing Lower Egypt) and Taweret of the North (representing Upper Egypt), each holding the royal cartouche of Pharaoh Ramses II. The cartouche, an oval or circular symbol, bears the pharaoh's name and titles in hieroglyphics and hieratic scripts. The union of the goddesses symbolizes the peaceful coexistence and unity of the two lands under Ramses II's rule. The relief is a testament to the artistic prowess of the ancient Egyptians, with intricate details and a sense of depth that draws the viewer in. The Great Temple of Ramses II, built between 1274 and 1244 BC, is a monumental structure that showcases the grandeur and power of the Egyptian civilization during the New Kingdom age. The temple is renowned for its impressive size, with four colossal statues of Ramses II carved into the mountainside. This relief, with its rich symbolism and historical significance, offers a glimpse into the ancient Egyptian world and the beliefs, values, and artistic traditions that shaped their civilization.
