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.

This photograph transports us back to the bustling streets of Chennai (Madras), in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. Taken in 1965 by renowned photographer Folco Quilici, it captures a vibrant scene that is both timeless and evocative. In the foreground stands a rickshaw, an iconic mode of transportation synonymous with Indian cities. The rickshaw puller can be seen energetically maneuvering his vehicle through the crowded street, showcasing the daily hustle and bustle of life in this vibrant city. Behind him, a bus makes its way along the road, adding to the dynamic atmosphere. The image provides us with a glimpse into everyday life in Chennai during this era – a snapshot frozen in time. It offers not only an insight into transportation methods but also serves as a window into Indian culture and society at large. The view extends beyond just transport; it reveals glimpses of buildings and shops lining both sides of the street. This urban landscape showcases Chennai's unique architectural style while providing context for its residents' daily activities. Moreover, this photograph speaks volumes about diversity - capturing Indians going about their day-to-day lives amidst their rich cultural heritage. With its focus on anthropology, ethnography, and folklore aspects, it highlights how different populations coexist harmoniously within this vibrant cityscape. Quilici's masterful composition allows viewers to immerse themselves fully in this moment captured over half a century ago – feeling as though they are right there on that very street corner experiencing all its sights and sounds firsthand.
