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 photograph captures the awe-inspiring beauty and historical significance of the Ara Pacis Augustae, an ancient Roman altar dedicated to the goddess of peace, Pax, and the emperor Augustus. Dated to 13 BC, this masterpiece of Roman art is a testament to the artistic and cultural achievements of the Roman civilization during the Pax Romana, or Roman Peace. The altar, located in the heart of Rome, is adorned with intricately sculpted panels and friezes that depict allegorical scenes of peace, prosperity, and the divine blessings bestowed upon Augustus and his family. The central panel, known as the "Allegory of Peace," showcases the goddess Pax holding an olive branch and standing between Ceres, the goddess of grain, and Concordia, the goddess of harmony. The Ara Pacis Augustae is a unique blend of mythological and historical symbolism, reflecting the deep-rooted belief in the divine power of the emperor and the importance of peace and prosperity in Roman society. The altar's preservation and display in the Museum of the Ara Pacis in Rome allows modern viewers to appreciate the artistic and historical significance of this ancient monument and to gain a deeper understanding of the rich cultural heritage of Italy. This photograph captures the essence of the Ara Pacis Augustae, inviting us to explore the mysteries of ancient Rome and to marvel at the enduring power of art and mythology.
