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 print from Mary Evans Picture Library depicts a pivotal moment in history, showcasing the role of a humble pigeon as a messenger for the imprisoned Mary Queen of Scots. In 1569, while confined at Tutbury, Mary Qoss relied on these feathered allies to communicate with her loyal supporters, such as Babington who was plotting her rescue and return to the throne.
The image captures the essence of desperation and hope intertwined in this daring plan to set Mary back on her rightful place of power. The intricate details in the artwork - from the crucifix hanging on the wall to the lute resting nearby - transport us back to a time when communication was limited but creativity knew no bounds.
As we gaze upon this scene, we are reminded of the resilience and resourcefulness of people throughout history. Even in times of great adversity, they found ways to overcome obstacles and fight for what they believed in. The presence of the pigeon as a helpful messenger symbolizes not only practical assistance but also an unwavering loyalty that transcends barriers.
This print is not just a visual representation; it is a testament to human ingenuity and determination against all odds. It serves as a reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always hope for redemption and restoration.
