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
1. Title: "Noah's Ark Unleashed: A Mosaic Tale from Saint Mark's Basilica, Venice, Italy" 2. Description: This image showcases a vibrant and intricate mosaic scene from the hallowed halls of Saint Mark's Basilica in Venice, Italy. The mosaic, originating from the Pala d'Oro or Golden Altar, dates back to the 12th-14th centuries and is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of the Byzantine and medieval periods. 3. Scene: The mosaic depicts the biblical episode of Noah releasing the animals from the Ark, an iconic moment from the Old Testament of the Christian Bible. The animals, meticulously crafted from tesserae or glass pieces, include a diverse array of creatures: lions, leopards, elephants, birds, and even more exotic species such as partridges, peacocks, quails, and ducks. 4. Symbolism: This mosaic is not only a stunning example of the artistry and craftsmanship of the time but also a symbol of the patriarchal story of Noah and the flood, a foundational narrative in Christianity. The animals, free from the confines of the Ark, represent the renewal and rebirth of life after the great deluge. 5. Style: The mosaic's style is characteristic of the Middle Ages, with its gold and glass decorations, intricate detail, and rich iconography. The Venetian influence is evident in the use of gold and the Byzantine influence in the mosaic technique, showcasing the unique blend of artistic styles that shaped the artistic landscape of Venice during this period. 6. Significance: This mosaic is a precious relic of the past, a window into the artistic and religious traditions of Europe during the Middle Ages. It is a reminder of the enduring power of art to capture the imagination and inspire awe, and a testament to the enduring legacy of Saint Mark's Basilica as a symbol of faith and artistic excellence.
