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
Hans Holbein the Younger: A Portrait of a Master Artist at the Age of 43 (1543) This striking portrait, created by the renowned German painter Hans Holbein the Younger in 1543, captures the artist at the height of his career. Holbein, born in Augsburg, Germany, had already established a reputation as a skilled and innovative painter by the time he was 43 years old. His talent had attracted the attention of King Henry VIII of England, who invited him to serve as his court painter in 1532. In this portrait, Holbein wears a white collar and a skull cap, typical attire for a painter during the Renaissance period. His beard is neatly trimmed, and his piercing gaze conveys a sense of intelligence and intensity. The intricately detailed collar, with its delicate folds and delicate pearl buttons, is a testament to Holbein's meticulous attention to detail and his mastery of the medium. The portrait also showcases Holbein's innovative use of chiaroscuro, the contrast between light and dark, to create depth and texture. The play of light on Holbein's face and the shadows on his collar add a sense of three-dimensionality to the image, making it a true masterpiece of Renaissance portraiture. Holbein's time in England proved to be a productive and influential period in his career. He created some of his most famous works during this time, including portraits of King Henry VIII and his courtiers. His influence on English art was significant, and his innovative techniques and style continued to inspire artists for generations to come.
