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 photograph showcases the Fountain of the Naiads, a stunning water feature located in Rome's Republic Square. Dating back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the sculpture was created by the renowned Italian artist Mario Rutelli between 1870 and 1888. The naiads, depicted as mythological female water spirits, gracefully adorn the base of the fountain, each one capturing a unique moment in the dance of water. The image, taken at backlight, highlights the intricate details of the sculptures, their silhouettes framed by the shimmering jet of water that cascades from the central figure. The water droplets, suspended in mid-air, add an ethereal quality to the scene, as if the naiads have momentarily paused in their playful dance to grant a glimpse into their otherworldly realm. The Fountain of the Naiads is a testament to the rich history and mythological traditions of ancient Rome. The mythological figures, their spirits embodied in the water, continue to captivate and inspire visitors to this day, reminding us of the enduring power of art and the natural world. This photograph is a beautiful representation of the intersection of history, mythology, and contemporary art, inviting us to appreciate the timeless beauty of Italy's cultural heritage.
