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 engraving, titled "An Eskimaux creeping into the passage of a snow hut" takes us back to the early 19th century and offers a glimpse into the world of exploration and indigenous cultures. The print, created in 1824 by Edward Francis Finden, is based on a drawing by Captain G. F. Lyon from William Edward Parry's 'Journal of a Second Voyage for the Discovery of a North-west Passage. ' In this scene, we witness an Eskimaux cautiously entering the narrow passage of a snow hut or igloo. The intricate details captured in this engraving allow us to appreciate both the architectural ingenuity and resourcefulness of these native people. The image transports us to North America, specifically Canada, where Inuit communities thrived amidst challenging Arctic conditions. It serves as a reminder that long before modern conveniences existed, indigenous peoples had developed sophisticated ways to adapt and survive in their environments. Through this artwork, we are invited to reflect on themes such as exploration, cultural diversity, and human resilience. It prompts us to acknowledge the rich history and contributions made by native peoples throughout the Americas. As we admire this piece from Fine Art Finder's collection at Newberry Library in Chicago, let it serve as an inspiration for further exploration - not only of new lands but also of our own understanding and appreciation for different cultures around the world.
