17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 photo print, we are transported to the enchanting streets of Lamu town in Kenya. The image captures a man gracefully riding a donkey through one of the narrow alleyways that wind their way through this historic island town. Here, vehicles are banned, and donkeys reign as the principal means of transporting heavy loads. Lamu town, situated 150 miles north-northeast of Mombasa, is not only a picturesque destination but also holds great historical significance. Dating back centuries, it showcases the rich Islamic culture and heritage that has shaped this region over time. The photograph beautifully portrays the essence of Lamu's unique charm - its storied buildings constructed from coral rag stand tall on either side of the narrow street. As our eyes wander beyond the man and his trusty steed, we catch glimpses of locals adorned in traditional Swahili hats and embroidered Muslim dress known as kanzus. This image encapsulates an authentic slice of African coastal life where time seems to have stood still. It invites us to immerse ourselves in Lamu's timeless beauty while reflecting on how ancient traditions continue to shape daily life here. As we gaze at this remarkable scene captured by NP for Discover Images by AWL, we can't help but be captivated by the simplicity and tranquility that emanates from every corner of Lamu Island.
