17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 striking image captures the regal presence of King Henry IV of England, as depicted in a portrait painted by Robert Peake the Elder around 1413. Henry, born in 1366 as Henry Bolingbroke, seized the throne from the usurper Richard II in 1399, marking the beginning of the Lancaster line of the House of Plantagenet. In this portrait, Henry is shown in full regalia, wearing a richly embroidered robe and holding a sceptre in his right hand. The sceptre, a symbol of royal power and authority, is adorned with a golden orb and a cross, further emphasizing Henry's divine right to rule. The portrait also reveals the physical toll of Henry's tumultuous reign. His face is lined with worry and age, reflecting the challenges he faced during his time on the throne. These challenges included rebellions, political intrigue, and the ongoing conflict with Scotland. Despite these difficulties, Henry persevered and left a lasting impact on English history. Robert Peake the Elder was a prominent painter of the Tudor and early Stuart periods. His portraits were known for their meticulous attention to detail and realistic depictions of his subjects. This image of Henry IV is no exception, providing a vivid and intriguing glimpse into the life of one of England's most intriguing monarchs. Henry IV's reign marked a turning point in English history, paving the way for the Tudor dynasty and the eventual unification of England and Wales. This portrait serves as a reminder of his significant contributions and the complexities of the political landscape during his time.
