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
In this print captured by NP from Discover Images by AWL, we are transported to the ancient city of Timbuktu in Mali. The image showcases a vibrant and traditional scene of an Islamic teacher diligently correcting a child's homework on a wooden slate. Timbuktu has long been renowned as a hub of Islamic learning, and this photograph beautifully encapsulates the rich cultural heritage that still thrives there today. The colorful attire worn by both the teacher and student adds an element of visual splendor to the composition, reflecting the vibrancy of African culture. The significance of education is palpable in this image, as it portrays an intimate moment between mentor and pupil. With its roots deeply embedded in Islam, Timbuktu continues to be home to numerous madrasas where students come to study religious teachings. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but appreciate the dedication and commitment displayed by both individuals. The teacher's hat symbolizes his role as a guide through knowledge while also representing his adherence to religious customs. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder that despite modern advancements, traditions remain alive within communities like Timbuktu. It offers us a glimpse into their daily lives and reminds us of the importance placed on education within their culture. NP's remarkable capture invites viewers to explore Western Africa's historical treasures while celebrating its enduring spiritual legacy.
