FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 print showcases the esteemed figure of St Augustine of Hippo, one of the great fathers of the early Christian church. Born in 350 and passing away in 430, St Augustine made significant contributions to theology and philosophy during his lifetime. In this hand-coloured woodcut from 1493, we see him depicted with his son Ambrose by his side. St Augustine is portrayed as a bishop, wearing a majestic mitre that symbolizes his high ecclesiastical rank. His dignified presence exudes wisdom and devotion to his faith. The intricate details brought to life through the delicate hand-colouring technique further enhance the depth and richness of this historical artwork. Ambrose, standing beside his father, represents an important connection between generations within Christianity. As they both gaze into the distance, their expressions hint at profound contemplation and spiritual enlightenment. This remarkable woodcut not only captures the essence of these influential figures but also serves as a testament to their enduring legacy within religious history. It reminds us of their invaluable contributions towards shaping early Christian thought and doctrine. As part of Universal Images Group's vast collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into centuries past while honoring two individuals who played pivotal roles in establishing Christianity as we know it today.
