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 print captures the intense moment of triumph as David holds up the severed head of Goliath, showcasing Domenico Fetti's masterful depiction of this iconic biblical scene. Painted in the 1620s during the Baroque period, this artwork exudes a sense of drama and emotion that is palpable even centuries later.
The contrast between David's youthful innocence and Goliath's lifeless corpse creates a powerful visual narrative that speaks to themes of bravery, victory, and justice. The intricate details in this painting, from the expressions on the characters' faces to the battlefield background, transport viewers back to ancient times when this legendary battle took place.
Fetti's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the composition, emphasizing David's heroism in overcoming his formidable enemy. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, from the texture of Goliath's armor to the expression on his face as he meets his demise at the hands of a mere boy.
Displayed at the National Museum in Stockholm, Sweden, this timeless masterpiece continues to captivate audiences with its portrayal of one of history's most famous episodes. A true testament to Fetti's talent and creativity, "David with the Head of Goliath" remains an enduring symbol of courage and triumph over adversity.
