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.

Manuel de Amat y Junient (1707-1782): A Prominent Figure in Spanish Colonial Administration in America This striking 18th century portrait captures the image of Manuel de Amat y Junient, a Spanish military officer and colonial administrator who played a significant role in the history of Chile and Peru. Born in Barcelona, Spain, Amat y Junient rose through the ranks of the Spanish military, eventually earning the title of captain-general and later becoming the royal governor of Chile (1761-1777) and viceroy of Peru (1776-1782). Amat y Junient's fashionable attire in this portrait reflects the opulence and grandeur of the time. He wears an elegant coat with gold buttons and a matching waistcoat, adorned with intricate embroidery. The voluminous periwig, or peruke, worn on his head was a popular fashion statement among the European elite during the modern age. The portrait also showcases his military rank with the visible epaulets on his shoulders and the sword at his side. During his tenure as royal governor of Chile, Amat y Junient oversaw the implementation of various reforms aimed at improving the living conditions of the indigenous population and strengthening the Spanish colonial presence in the region. In Peru, he focused on maintaining order and stability, as well as promoting economic development. Amat y Junient's legacy in the American continents is marked by his contributions to the Spanish colonial administration and his efforts to address the challenges of governing vast territories during the age of colonialism. This portrait serves as a testament to his leadership and the historical significance of his time.
