23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame

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 print showcases the intricate details of a gargoyle perched on St. Gatien Cathedral in Tours, Indre-et-Loire, France. The cathedral itself is a magnificent example of Gothic architecture and serves as a place of worship for many. However, it is the dragon-like creature depicted by this gargoyle that steals the spotlight. The craftsmanship and artistry evident in this sculpture are truly remarkable. Every scale, claw, and wing has been meticulously carved to create a lifelike representation of an animal that seems to come alive against the backdrop of the cathedral's exterior. As we gaze upon this photograph, our eyes are drawn to the vibrant colors captured by Godong/Robert Harding's lens. The contrast between the weathered stone facade and the vivid hues adds depth and dimension to this image. This vertical composition allows us to focus solely on the foreground - on this fantastical creature guarding over St. Gatien Cathedral with its watchful gaze. There are no people present in this scene, emphasizing both its timeless nature and inviting viewers to imagine themselves standing before such architectural wonders. For those who appreciate travel photography or have an affinity for European history and culture, this print serves as a visual invitation to explore not only Tours but also other enchanting destinations throughout France and Europe.
