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.

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 portrait, created between 1536 and 1537, showcases Ugolino Martelli (1519-1592), a prominent Florentine aristocrat, as depicted by the renowned artist Il Bronzino (Agnolo di Cosimo) (1503-1572). The portrait is now proudly displayed at the Gemaldegalerie in Berlin, Germany, a testament to its enduring significance in European art history. Ugolino, dressed in black and wearing a tall hat, gazes intently at an open book in his hands. The book, with its leather-bound cover and intricate gold embellishments, suggests the aristocrat's interest in humanist literature, perhaps even the works of Homer and the Iliad. The room's interior is adorned with marble sculptures and a closed door, emphasizing the grandeur and refinement of the aristocratic lifestyle. Il Bronzino masterfully captures the man's facial expression, revealing a sense of deep concentration and intellectual curiosity. The artist's use of chiaroscuro, or the interplay of light and shadow, adds depth and texture to the portrait, enhancing the intrigue and allure of the subject. The portrait of Ugolino Martelli is a prime example of the Renaissance period's emphasis on the arts, literature, and the cultivation of the mind. The aristocrat's closed hand, resting on the book, further emphasizes his connection to the intellectual world and his commitment to learning. The portrait's placement in the prestigious Gemaldegalerie in Berlin underscores its importance as a significant work of art from the 16th century, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Europe.
