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.

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
King Eric IX, also known as Saint Eric, is depicted in this stunning handcoloured copperplate engraving alongside his consort, Queen Christina of Denmark. The image, created by Scrantoni for Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World" published in Florence in 1847, offers a captivating glimpse into the medieval splendor of the Swedish and Danish courts. Eric, dressed in regal robes and crowned with a golden diadem, holds a sceptre in one hand and an orb in the other, symbols of his royal power and authority. His solemn expression and the halo surrounding his head emphasize his sainthood, which was recognized posthumously in the 14th century due to his efforts to Christianize Sweden. Queen Christina, dressed in elegant attire and adorned with a jeweled crown, gazes tenderly at her husband. She is known for her intelligence, beauty, and strong personality, making her one of the most intriguing figures in Scandinavian history. The intricate details of their clothing, the rich colors, and the meticulous shading of the handcoloring all contribute to the captivating allure of this historical illustration. The image not only showcases the grandeur of the medieval monarchy but also provides a glimpse into the personal relationship between these two influential rulers.
