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
The Parthenon, an iconic symbol of ancient Greek civilization and a masterpiece of classical architecture, stands proudly on the Acropolis of Athens, Greece. Dating back to the 5th century BC, this Doric-style temple was commissioned by Pericles and designed by the architects Ictinos and Callicrates. The Parthenon is a testament to the artistic, cultural, and political achievements of Athens during the Athenian democracy. The exterior of the temple is adorned with intricate details, including the elegant and slender Doric columns, the ornate entablature, and the meticulously carved metopes and caryatids. The frieze, which decorates the architrave, depicts a procession of Athenians offering sacrifices and paying homage to their goddess Athena. The Parthenon's exterior is also characterized by the use of marble, which was quarried from the mountains of Attica. The building's exterior is further enhanced by the intricate details of the architrave, epistyle, and cornice, which add to the overall harmony and balance of the design. The Parthenon's significance extends beyond its architectural beauty. It is a symbol of the ancient Greek civilization, which laid the foundations for Western civilization and influenced European art, architecture, and democracy. The temple's enduring legacy continues to inspire awe and admiration, making it a must-see destination for visitors to Athens and Greece. This photograph captures the exterior of the Parthenon in all its glory, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of ancient Greece. The intricate details of the temple's architecture are on full display, inviting us to explore the wonders of the ancient world and appreciate the artistic and architectural achievements of the past.
