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 copperplate engraving, created by Pietro Ruga after an illustration by Lorenzo Rocceggiani in 1802, showcases an intriguing assemblage of Parthian and Dacian weapons and armor. The image is derived from the renowned Trajan's Column in Rome, which is adorned with relief carvings depicting the Roman-Dacian Wars. At the center, a Parthian helmet (1) with a distinctive crest and elaborate decorations is displayed. The Parthian ensign (2), featuring a winged sun disc and a spear, is also depicted. Parthians were ancient Iranian people, and their empire was a significant adversary of the Roman Empire during this period. Two Dacian artifacts are also illustrated. The Dacian breastplate armor (3) is shown, which is characterized by its intricate design and the use of large, overlapping scales. The Dacian quiver (4) is adorned with a decorative pattern, and it holds arrows that would have been used with the shield and other weapons. The Dacians were an ancient people inhabiting the region of Dacia, which is now part of Romania. They were known for their fierce warrior culture and their resistance against the Roman Empire. The shield (not visible in this image) was an essential component of their military equipment. This engraving provides a fascinating glimpse into the military culture and artistic traditions of the ancient civilizations, offering valuable insights into their history and heritage.
