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.

This print titled "Dhobi Ghats of Mumbai (Bombay), where Indians made the laundry" takes us on a journey to the heart of India's bustling city. The image, captured by photographer Mauricio Abreu, showcases one of Mumbai's most iconic and traditional landmarks - the Dhobi Ghats. In this vibrant snapshot, we are transported to a world where time seems to stand still. Rows upon rows of concrete wash pens fill the frame, each occupied by skilled Indian workers known as dhobis diligently washing clothes. This centuries-old tradition has been passed down through generations, making it an integral part of Mumbai's cultural fabric. The sheer magnitude and organized chaos depicted in this photograph is awe-inspiring. It offers a glimpse into the daily lives and hard work that goes into keeping Mumbai clean and presentable for its millions of residents. As colorful fabrics flutter in the wind against a backdrop of towering buildings, we witness both tradition and modernity coexisting harmoniously. Mumbai's Dhobi Ghats have become not only a symbol of Indian heritage but also an attraction for travelers seeking authentic experiences. Visitors can immerse themselves in this living piece of history while witnessing firsthand how laundry is done on such an impressive scale. With its rich colors, intricate details, and undeniable energy, this print serves as a reminder that amidst rapid urbanization and globalization, age-old traditions continue to thrive in India's diverse landscape.
