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 Sachs at Work: A Portrait of the Renaissance Mastermind This evocative image captures Hans Sachs (1494-1576), the renowned German shoemaker, poet, and Meistersinger of Nuremberg, in the midst of his creative process. Sachs, an influential figure in the intellectual and artistic circles of the German Renaissance, is best known for penning over 6000 works, making him one of the most prolific authors of his time. Born in Nuremberg, Sachs began his career as a shoemaker, but his passion for poetry and music soon took precedence. He joined the Meistersingers, a guild of musicians and poets, and became a respected member, earning the title of 'Meister' or master. Sachs' works, which spanned various genres including hymns, ballads, and comedies, were deeply rooted in the humanist tradition and often reflected the social and political climate of the time. Sachs' literary prowess extended beyond the borders of Nuremberg, and he gained the attention of Martin Luther, the leader of the Protestant Reformation. Luther admired Sachs' work and even set some of his poems to music. Sachs' support for Luther and the Reformation further solidified his place in history as a cultural and intellectual force. Despite his many accomplishments, Sachs remained humbly devoted to his craft, continuing to work as a shoemaker even as his literary fame grew. This image of Hans Sachs at work, with quill in hand and a stack of papers at his side, serves as a testament to his enduring dedication to both his art and his community. A true renaissance man, Hans Sachs continues to inspire generations with his unwavering commitment to creativity, learning, and the human spirit.
