Gothic framed wall art - professionally finished and available up to a 24in x 16in Print in a 30in x 20in Frame.
Historic ecclesiastical carving brings a distinctive and thought-provoking presence to interiors, particularly in studies, libraries, or spaces with a darker, heritage-inspired style. The detailed textures and muted tones suit traditional or gothic-inspired décor, offering a conversation piece for those drawn to history and symbolism.
Within St Martin’s Church in Burton Agnes, the table tomb of Sir Walter Griffith, who died in 1487, features a striking and unusual arrangement of carved skulls and bones. These macabre details reflect late medieval attitudes toward mortality, serving as a visual reminder of the inevitability of death. Such imagery was not uncommon in church monuments of the period, where the concept of memento mori encouraged reflection on life, faith, and the passage of time. The craftsmanship and symbolism offer a tangible link to the beliefs and artistic traditions of the late 15th century.
In this image, the carved skulls are shown in close detail, their worn surfaces and layered forms creating a dense, textured composition. Subtle variations in tone highlight the age and weathering of the stone, while the tight framing removes surrounding context to focus entirely on the intricate carving. The natural light enhances the depth and shadow between each element, reflecting the character of the original artwork.
This framed photographic print offers a refined and ready-to-hang way to display your chosen image. Professionally produced and carefully finished, it combines high-quality printing with traditional framing craftsmanship to create a piece of wall art that complements both modern and classic interiors.
Your image is printed on premium lustre photographic paper, chosen for its fine stippled surface and balanced sheen. This finish enhances colour depth and detail while reducing reflections, allowing the image to remain clear and vibrant in a wide range of lighting conditions.
The print is presented within a hand-made solid wood frame featuring a clean square-edge profile. Available in six carefully selected colours – black, white, brown, natural, antique silver, and antique gold - the frame provides a versatile and timeless presentation.
The frame is finished with HD acrylic glaze, a lightweight and shatter-resistant alternative to traditional glass. This ultra-clear acrylic protects the print while maintaining excellent clarity, helping to preserve colour and detail for years to come.
Each frame arrives ready to hang with pre-positioned wall fixings on the reverse, allowing the artwork to be positioned easily and securely. Available in sizes up to 24in x 16in Print in a 30in x 20in Frame, this carved skulls and bones framed print offers a simple and elegant way to introduce high-quality photography into your home.

Excellent Print arrived - High Quality - Very professional - Correspondence with Carol was helpful & informative. Would highly recommend Realworldart.
I'm absolutely made up with the print I received from Real World Art. I went for the Koi Carp image - It's very evocative and they've totally captured the serenity you feel watching Koi. You can almost hear the babbling water! What's more, it's a top quality print, pin-sharp and looks great framed up. Couldn't recommend them any higher.. lovely to deal with.. thank you.
