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 evocative image captures the pivotal moment in history when Martin Luther, the German theologian and monk, went into hiding at the Wartburg Castle in 1521. Disguised as Junker Georg, a knight, Luther sought refuge from the Church after refusing to recant his beliefs, which had sparked the Protestant Reformation. The bearded, unshaven man in the photo, with a serious expression and no sign of a tonsure, is a striking representation of Luther in hiding. The Wartburg Castle, perched atop a hill in central Germany, served as a secluded sanctuary for Luther during this critical period. It was here that he began translating the Bible into German, making it accessible to the masses and further fueling the flames of the Reformation. The year was 1521, and the religious and political landscape of Europe was on the brink of significant change. Luther's translation of the Bible into the common language, along with his theological ideas, would challenge the authority of the Catholic Church and lead to the establishment of Protestantism. This image captures the intensity and determination of Luther during this transformative time in history. Luther's translation of the Bible, which was completed in 1522, is considered a cornerstone of the Protestant Reformation and a turning point in the history of the German language. This photo print, from Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into an important moment in the life of this influential figure and the events that shaped the religious and linguistic landscape of Europe.
