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 exquisite photograph captures the reverence and awe surrounding The Torah Scroll, a sacred object in Jewish tradition and the holiest artifact in any synagogue. Housed at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem, this magnificent scroll contains the Pentateuch, the Five Books of Moses, which are the foundational texts of Judaism. The Torah Scroll is not just a collection of texts; it is a testament to the rich history and enduring legacy of the Jewish people. Written in Hebrew, these ancient texts have been meticulously hand-copied for generations, each letter carefully crafted on parchment made from the skin of a kosher animal. The intricate, calligraphic writing in this photograph is a testament to the dedication and skill of the scribes who have preserved these sacred texts for thousands of years. The scroll is beautifully adorned with ornate silver and gold crowns, signifying its divine origin and the importance of the teachings it contains. The Torah Scroll is more than just a historical artifact; it is a living tradition that continues to inspire and guide the Jewish community today. As the Jewish people have carried the Torah with them through their long and storied history, it has become a symbol of their resilience, faith, and commitment to their heritage. The Israel Museum in Jerusalem is a fitting home for this sacred scroll, as it is a place where the history, art, and culture of the Jewish people are celebrated and preserved for future generations to explore and learn from. This photograph is a reminder of the profound impact that the Torah has had on Jewish history and identity, and the enduring power of tradition to connect us to our past and shape our future.
