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 14th-century Italian miniature illustration, housed in the Marciana National Library in Venice, depicts the moment of profound devotion and chivalric duty between the Knights Esclabor and Arphasar. The scene is believed to be derived from the French Arthurian legend of Tristan and Iseult, where the knights, Esclabor and Meliadus, engage in a duel over their shared love for the enchantress Isolde. However, upon recognizing the error of their ways and the futility of their conflict, they offer each other a solemn pledge of brotherhood and vow to serve each other loyally. The Gothic artistry of this miniature is evident in the intricate details of the knights' armor, the delicate folds of their robes, and the rich hues of their heraldic emblems. Esclabor, on the left, wears a red surcoat emblazoned with a white cross, while Arphasar, on the right, dons a blue surcoat adorned with a golden lion. Both knights are shown in a humble posture, their hands clasped in a gesture of peace and unity. This illustration is a testament to the enduring themes of loyalty, brotherhood, and redemption that resonated deeply in medieval European culture. It is a poignant reminder of the power of forgiveness and the importance of putting aside personal grievances for the greater good. The Knights Esclabor and Arphasar's offer of brotherhood transcends the boundaries of time and continues to inspire awe and admiration in viewers today.
