23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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
This evocative photograph captures the iconic Statue of St. Michael the Archangel, located at the end of the Esplanade leading towards the Rosary Basilica of the Sanctuary of Our Lady in Lourdes, France. The statue, a historical masterpiece, portrays St. Michael in the act of vanquishing Satan, with the fallen angel lying beneath his feet. The serene expression on St. Michael's face contrasts starkly with the turbulence of the scene, as he crushes Satan with the power of his right foot, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil. The backdrop of the Pyrenees Mountains adds to the breathtaking beauty of the scene, while the tranquil waters of the Gave River reflect the peaceful atmosphere of the sanctuary. The statue, a popular pilgrimage site, has stood at the entrance of the Esplanade since 1874 and has become a powerful symbol of faith and devotion for millions of visitors from around the world. The history of the statue is deeply rooted in the rich cultural and religious heritage of France. According to legend, the Virgin Mary appeared to a young girl named Bernadette Soubirous in 1858, leading her to the site where the statue was later built. The statue's construction was a testament to the deep faith and commitment of the local community, who raised funds through donations and contributions from pilgrims. The statue of St. Michael the Archangel, with its powerful symbolism and historical significance, continues to draw visitors to the sanctuary in Lourdes, offering a glimpse into the deep spiritual traditions of France and the enduring power of faith.
