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.

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 stunning relief depicts the ancient Egyptian god Ra, the sun god, in his falcon form, soaring above the head of Pharaoh Ramses II. The relief is a testament to the rich mythological and religious beliefs of the ancient Egyptian civilization during the New Kingdom period, specifically the 19th Dynasty (13th century BC). The relief was discovered in the Ramesseum, the mortuary temple of Ramses II, located in the Necropolis of Thebes, on the west bank of the Nile in Egypt. The temple, built between 1279 and 1213 BC, was dedicated to the god Amun-Ra and served as a memorial temple for the pharaoh. In this relief, Ra is depicted with the solar disk between his wings, symbolizing his role as the god of the sun. The goddess Wadjet, represented as a cobra, is shown on the pharaoh's head, symbolizing his divine protection and kingship. The relief demonstrates the great artistic skill and perspective of ancient Egyptian sculpture, with the relief's intricate details and the sense of depth created by the chiseled lines. The relief serves as a reminder of the ancient Egyptian belief in the divine kingship of their pharaohs and the importance of the sun god in their religious and mythological beliefs. The relief's preservation in the Ramesseum, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, allows us to appreciate the artistic and historical significance of ancient Egyptian civilization.
