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
This print by Trevor Page showcases the reinforced Yangtze embankments at the new town of Wanxian in China's Chongqing province. The image captures the immense scale and engineering prowess required to protect this area against rising water levels and landslides. The photograph serves as a stark reminder of the transformative power of human intervention, as it reveals that the old town of Wanxian has already been submerged due to the Three Gorges Dam project. This ambitious undertaking aimed to harness hydroelectric energy but came at a cost for those living in its path. In this image, we witness both resilience and vulnerability coexisting side by side. The fortified embankments stand tall, symbolizing humanity's determination to safeguard their communities from natural disasters. At the same time, they serve as a poignant reminder of how progress can reshape landscapes and displace entire populations. Trevor Page skillfully captures not only the physicality of these reinforced structures but also conveys an emotional narrative through his lens. The composition invites viewers to reflect on our relationship with nature and consider both the benefits and consequences that arise from altering our environment. This powerful print prompts us to contemplate our responsibility towards balancing development with preservation, reminding us that every decision we make today will shape tomorrow's world.
