Aged Bust Elder Elderly Palestrina
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 ancient Roman artifact is a beautifully preserved bust of an elderly man, hailing from the 1st century B.C. Discovered in Palestrina, a town located in the Lazio region of Italy, this priceless relic is now proudly displayed at the Palazzo Massimo in Rome's National Roman Museum. The intricately carved marble head portrays an aged man with a wise and serene expression, his furrowed brow and sagging cheeks a testament to the passage of time. The meticulous attention to detail, from the recessed eyes and the delicate wrinkles around the mouth, to the intricately styled hair and beard, is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of ancient Roman artisans. The bust is believed to be a portrait, offering a glimpse into the lives of the wealthy and powerful individuals of ancient Rome. The historical significance of this artifact is immeasurable, allowing us to connect with the past and gain a deeper understanding of Roman culture and society during the late Republic period. The bust stands as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Roman art and the rich history of Italy.
