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 handcolored engraving, titled 'Civil Costume of England from the Conquest to the Present Period,' depicts the male costume of the time of Henry VI, spanning the years 1422 to 1461. The image was meticulously drawn by Charles Martin and expertly etched by his father Leopold Martin. The Martins were renowned artists and engravers, known for their romantic and intricate works. The costume, drawn from various sources including tapestries, monumental effigies, illuminated manuscripts, and portraits, showcases the fashion of the late medieval period in England. Henry VI's reign was marked by political instability and the Wars of the Roses, and this is reflected in the ornate yet practical design of the male attire. The figure wears a long, fitted tunic with a high neckline and long, wide sleeves. The tunic is belted at the waist and features a large, decorative collar. Over the tunic is a long, flowing robe, also belted at the waist, with intricate patterns and designs adorning the hem. The man also wears a coif, a close-fitting linen cap, and a pair of hose, or tight-fitting leggings, held up by a girdle. The Martins' attention to detail is evident in the intricate patterns and textures of the fabric, as well as the realistic rendering of the man's facial features and posture. The use of handcoloring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning representation of English fashion during the time of Henry VI.
