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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigma surrounding "The lost colony of Roanoke" in vivid color lithography. The image portrays a moment frozen in time, transporting us back to the 16th century when new settlers arrived at Roanoke only to find it deserted. As we gaze upon this historical scene, our eyes are drawn to the stockade where the word "Croaton" is hauntingly carved, revealing the name of an Indian tribe. The visual narrative evokes a sense of confusion and mystery that has puzzled historians for centuries. The abandoned settlement stands as a testament to the complexities and challenges faced during colonialization in America. It serves as a reminder of both threat and opportunity that immigration brought forth during this era. Intriguingly, amidst the desolation, male soldiers can be seen standing guard with determination etched on their faces. Their presence hints at the constant struggle for survival and protection against unknown forces lurking beyond these walls. This illustration from Peter Newark American Pictures offers us a glimpse into one of history's most enduring mysteries—the fate of those who once called Roanoke home. With its rich detail and expert craftsmanship, this artwork invites contemplation about what might have transpired within these forgotten shores during that fateful period in North Carolina's past.
