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 exquisite 15th-century illuminated manuscript page, hailing from the Codex of Predis held in the Royal Library of Turin, Italy, showcases a poignant moment in Christian religious history: Jesus, after being tempted by the devil, is surrounded by a multitude of angels. The scene is set against a stunning cityscape, with a caravel boat and a bustling seaport in the background, symbolizing the Middle Ages' thriving maritime trade and the spread of Catholicism. Jesus, depicted in the center, is shown with a serene expression, his aura or aureole radiating an ethereal glow. His garments are adorned with intricate gold and silver embroidery, adding to the opulence of the scene. The devil, with his horns and inverted cross, is shown in the foreground, attempting to lead Jesus astray. However, Jesus remains steadfast, with the protective presence of numerous angels encircling him. The angels, with their winged forms and halos, create a sense of divine intervention and protection. Their wings, delicately rendered in gold leaf and intricate detail, add a sense of otherworldliness to the scene. The apostles, too, are present, their faces expressing awe and admiration for their leader's strength and resolve. This masterpiece of Renaissance art, created in the 15th century by Cristoforo di Geremia, is a testament to the rich artistic and religious heritage of Italy during this period. The intricate details, vibrant colors, and stunning use of gold leaf make it a must-see for art and history enthusiasts alike.
