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 relief print showcases the revered Pharaoh Ramses II in an act of devotion before the goddess Hathor at the Small Temple or Temple of Hathor in Abu Simbel, Egypt. Dating back to the 13th century BC during the 19th Dynasty of the New Empire, this masterpiece of ancient Egyptian art is a testament to the deep spiritual connection between the ruler and the divine. Ramses II, adorned with the symbolic regalia of the pharaoh, including the Atef crown, the crook, and the flail, presents offerings to the goddess Hathor. The goddess, depicted as a cow or a woman with cow's horns and solar disc, is shown graciously receiving the offerings. The intricate hieroglyphic inscriptions in the hieratic script, decorating the temple walls, further emphasize the mythological significance of the scene. The double crown of Egypt, the Pschent, atop Ramses II's head symbolizes his dual role as the ruler of both Upper and Lower Egypt. The Pharaoh's powerful and regal presence is accentuated by the skillful use of perspective in the relief, drawing the viewer's attention to the divine encounter. This exquisite piece of ancient Egyptian art not only provides a glimpse into the religious practices of the time but also showcases the extraordinary artistic achievements of the New Kingdom.
