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 image is a rare and exquisite glimpse into the past, showcasing the Italian city of Rimini as it appeared in the late 16th century, as depicted in the renowned atlas "Theatrum Orbis Terrarum" by the Flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius. The engraving, created in 1570, is part of the vast collection housed in the Library Estense in Modena, Italy. The meticulously detailed illustration highlights the strategic location of Rimini along the Adriatic Sea, nestled between the Emilia-Romagna region and the Apennine Mountains. The city's port is clearly visible, with ships anchored in the harbor, signaling the importance of maritime trade during this era. The intricate line work and vibrant colors bring to life the city's architectural gems, including the ancient Arch of Augustus and the imposing Malatesta Temple. This historical map offers a fascinating window into the world of 16th-century geography and cartography, providing a valuable record of the past and a testament to the artistic mastery of Abraham Ortelius.
