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.

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
1. Title: "A Pharmaceutical Treasure from Naples: The Charm of an Antique Pharmacy Pitcher and Vase" This image showcases a beautiful pharmacy pitcher and vase hailing from the enchanting city of Naples, Italy. The pitcher, also known as a cruche in French, is decorated with intricate detail, featuring the initials "SP 1689" within a heraldic shield. Above the shield, the Latin motto "A. CDIGARD. STELLAT" is elegantly inscribed. The pitcher and vase are exquisite examples of the rich history of glazed pottery from France and foreign lands, as depicted in the "General History of Ancient French and Foreign Glazed Pottery" by Ris Paquots. This hand-finished chromolithograph, published in Paris in 1874, captures the essence of these timeless pieces. The pharmacy pitcher, with its ornate design, was not merely an object used for dispensing medications but a symbol of the apothecary's craft and expertise. The vase, adorned with similar heraldic elements, would have held water or flowers, adding a touch of elegance to the pharmacy's interior. The intricate details of the pitcher and vase, from the carefully crafted shield to the delicate inscription, are a testament to the artistry and skill of the potters of Naples during this period. The use of chromolithography, a printing technique that allowed for vibrant colors and intricate detail, further enhances the allure of these pieces. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when pharmacies were not only places of healing but also repositories of art and culture. The pharmacy pitcher and vase from Naples, Italy, are not only beautiful objects but also a reminder of the rich history of pharmacy and the role it has played in shaping our world.
