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.

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.

In this print titled "Africa, Benin, Grand Popo. Salt Making in a little village by the mono river" we are transported to a small village nestled along the banks of the Mono River in West Africa. The image showcases the traditional method of salt making that has been passed down through generations. Inside a humble mud hut, local villagers can be seen diligently boiling and cooking over an open firewood stove. The atmosphere is filled with warmth and intensity as they work tirelessly to produce high-quality salt for their community's needs. The composition beautifully captures the essence of African culture and craftsmanship. Every detail tells a story - from the rustic wooden oven used for heating to the handcrafted awl employed for stirring and testing consistency.
