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.

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 exquisite painting captures the awe-inspiring Imperial State Crown, a masterpiece of royal regalia created for Queen Victoria's coronation in 1838. The Imperial State Crown is the only crown used in the formal coronation ceremony of English and British monarchs, making it a priceless and symbolically significant artifact in the history of the British monarchy. Queen Victoria, who ascended to the throne in 1837 at the tender age of 18, is depicted here wearing the magnificent crown adorned with precious stones, gold, and intricate designs. The crown's centerpiece is the Black Prince's Ruby, a large ruby surrounded by smaller diamonds and pearls. The Imperial State Crown also features the Cullinan II diamond, the second largest diamond in the world at the time, which is now part of the British Crown Jewels. The painting also showcases the Sceptre with the Cross, one of the two orbs carried in the coronation procession. The sceptre is topped with a cross, encrusted with rubies, sapphires, and emeralds, and holds the Sovereign's Ring, which symbolizes the monarch's marriage to the realm. This painting offers a glimpse into the grandeur and opulence of the coronation ceremony, a momentous event in the life of a monarch that signifies their formal investiture and the beginning of their reign. The Imperial State Crown, with its rich history and precious materials, remains a testament to the enduring tradition and symbolism of the British monarchy.
