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 evocative portrait captures the intense gaze and resolute demeanor of Louis I de Bourbon, 1st Prince of Condé (1530-1569), a pivotal figure in the French Huguenot movement during the 16th century. As a leading Protestant nobleman, Condé played a significant role in the religious and political upheavals that marked this tumultuous era. Born into the esteemed House of Bourbon, Condé's early life was marked by the intricacies of the French court. However, his religious convictions eventually led him to embrace the Protestant faith, a decision that would forever alter the course of his life. In the face of mounting persecution, Condé became a vocal advocate for the Huguenot cause, rallying fellow Protestants and organizing military resistance against the Catholic monarchy. This striking image of Condé, dressed in ornate armor adorned with a ruff collar and an oval star medallion, underscores his status as a powerful and influential figure. The sad expression on his face may reflect the heavy burden of leadership and the constant threat of danger that accompanied his commitment to the Huguenot cause. The historical significance of this portrait is further emphasized by the prominent placement of the date range, 1530-1569, which serves as a poignant reminder of the tumultuous times in which Condé lived and led. As a testament to the rich tapestry of French history, this portrait of Louis I de Bourbon, 1st Prince of Condé, stands as a powerful symbol of courage, conviction, and resilience in the face of adversity.
