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 ideal reconstruction print by Lodovico Pogliaghi depicts Michelangelo's tomb of Pope Julius II as it was intended to be seen in St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican. The monumental structure, which was left incomplete at Michelangelo's death in 1564, is shown here in its idealized form, towering over the figures of Michelangelo and Pope Julius II. Michelangelo began work on the tomb in 1505, but it was not until 1545 that Pope Julius II commissioned the architect Domenico Fontana to construct a crypt to house the tomb. However, the tomb was never completed according to Michelangelo's designs, with various artists and architects contributing to the project over the centuries. The print captures the awe-inspiring scale of the tomb, which was to be Michelangelo's final work. The sculptures and statues that adorn the monument are intricately detailed, with the figures of Michelangelo and Pope Julius II appearing small in comparison. The print also highlights the architectural elements of the tomb, with its intricate columns and ornate decoration. Lodovico Pogliaghi's reconstruction is an imaginative representation of Michelangelo's original vision for the tomb. The print provides a glimpse into the grandeur and magnificence of the tomb, which continues to be a source of inspiration and wonder for visitors to St. Peter's Basilica in the Vatican.
