31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
In this photo print, we are transported back to the Middle Ages, where a dedicated scribe diligently copies manuscripts in a tranquil scriptorium. The scene is filled with an air of scholarly devotion as the European monk sits at his desk, surrounded by open manuscripts waiting to be transcribed. Hand-colored with exquisite detail, this 19th-century woodcut beautifully captures the essence of medieval learning and historic heritage. The intricate illustrations on each manuscript come alive under the skilled hand of the artist, showcasing the artistry that went into these ancient texts. The scribe's focused expression reveals his deep concentration as he meticulously writes each word with precision and care. His writing table is adorned with quills, ink pots, and various tools necessary for his craft. It is within these hallowed walls of monasteries that knowledge was preserved and passed down through generations. This image serves as a testament to the importance of education during this era - a time when books were scarce treasures and information was painstakingly recorded by hand. It reminds us of our own journey towards enlightenment and how far we have come in terms of technology and accessibility to knowledge. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing scene from centuries past, let us appreciate the dedication and commitment embodied by this medieval scribe who played an integral role in shaping our understanding of history today.
