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
Step back in time with this enchanting Victorian-era Christmas card from the late 1890s. The card features a beautiful religious verse set against a backdrop of lush, green pine leaves and fir branches, adorned with vibrant red berries and delicate yellow flowers. Two graceful butterflies, their wings a blend of orange and brown with intricate markings, flutter among the blooms, adding a touch of whimsy to this devotional scene. The Gothic-inspired typography of the card's lettering is both elegant and ornate, with capital letters and initials in a bold, gold font. The verse itself, taken from the Gospel of Luke in the Bible, reads, "And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger." The historical significance of the card lies not only in its beautiful design but also in its connection to the Savior's birth and the enduring tradition of exchanging Christmas cards. This card is a testament to the beauty and meaning of the season, a reminder of the hope and love that Christmas brings.
