Arriving Spanish Explorer Hernando De Soto
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
This print captures the historic moment of the Landing of De Soto in Florida, a significant event in American history. The engraving, created by Asa Coolidge Warren in 1855, transports us back to May 1539 when Hernando de Soto, a Spanish explorer, arrived on the shores of America. The image showcases De Soto's expedition as his ship anchors in the Bay of Spiritu Santo. With an air of anticipation and determination, De Soto and his soldiers disembark from their vessel onto the unfamiliar land. Their mission? To search for gold. The scene is filled with energy and excitement as soldiers clad in armor prepare to explore this new territory. The lush landscape serves as a backdrop to this pivotal moment that would shape future interactions between Europeans and Native Americans. Warren's expert craftsmanship brings every detail to life - from the intricate engravings on De Soto's ship to the expressions on each soldier's face. This print not only commemorates an important historical event but also pays homage to Warren's artistic talent. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the courage and ambition that drove explorers like Hernando de Soto to venture into uncharted territories. It serves as a powerful reminder of our shared past and invites us to reflect on how these encounters shaped our present-day world.
