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
1. Title: "Olympia (Restored): A Glorious Revival of Ancient Greece's Hallowed Ground" This evocative image showcases the breathtaking beauty and historical significance of Olympia, the ancient sanctuary in Greece renowned as the birthplace of the Olympic Games. The photograph, taken after extensive restoration efforts, captures the awe-inspiring ruins of the once grand complex, which dates back to the 8th century BC. The iconic Temple of Hera, the ancient goddess of marriage, childbirth, and family, stands proudly in the foreground, its Doric columns rising majestically against the clear blue sky. The temple, adorned with intricate friezes and meticulously restored, exudes an air of reverence and mystery, transporting us back to a time when mythology and religion intertwined. In the background, the ruins of the Philippeion, a circular building dedicated to Philip II of Macedon, can be seen. The Philippeion, with its distinctive circular design, is a testament to the architectural prowess of the ancient Greeks and their ability to create structures that have withstood the test of time. The lush greenery surrounding the ruins adds to the serene atmosphere, offering a stark contrast to the ancient stones. The verdant landscape, dotted with olive trees, is a reminder of the harmonious relationship between the ancient Greeks and nature. This restored photograph of Olympia is not just a visual representation of history; it is a testament to the enduring legacy of ancient Greece and its rich cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving our past for future generations to appreciate and learn from. The image invites us to imagine the vibrant festivals, the triumphant athletes, and the awe-inspiring rituals that once took place on this hallowed ground.
