17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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 breathtaking print showcases Michelangelo Buonarroti's masterpiece, "The Moses," a prime example of High Renaissance sculpture created around 1513-1515. Commissioned by Pope Julius II for his tomb, this sculpture is now proudly displayed in the church of San Pietro in Vincoli in Rome. The figure of Moses, carved from stone, embodies the biblical character's wisdom and enlightenment through the distinctive feature of horns on his head. This symbolism, derived from a mistranslation of the Hebrew word for "rays of light," has been a subject of fascination and debate among art historians and theologians. The flowing robes and intricate details of Moses' facial features display Michelangelo's exceptional skill and artistry, making this sculpture an enduring icon of the Renaissance period.
