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
This stunning inlaid marble panel, captured here from the hallowed halls of Siena's Duomo (Cathedral) in Italy, dates back to the 1910s and tells the tragic story of Absalom, the third son of King David from the Old Testament of the Bible. The intricately designed panel depicts the moment of Absalom's death during the Battle of Ephraim Wood. Absalom, with his long flowing hair caught in the branches of a tree, is shown being killed by Joab, the commander of David's army, who speared him in the heart. The panel's inlaid marble technique masterfully brings the scene to life, with the detailed depiction of the forest, the spears, and the expressions of anguish and determination on the faces of the characters. Absalom's lifeless body, with his head thrown back and his eyes closed, lies at the base of the tree, surrounded by the chaos of battle. The panel's intricate design and historical significance make it a must-see for visitors to Siena's Duomo, a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Italy's past.
