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 engraving titled "Street Sketches in Tokio, Japan" takes us on a visual journey through the bustling streets of old Tokyo. Created by Thomas Harrington Wilson in 1890, this print offers a glimpse into the vibrant and diverse culture of Japan during that time. The scene is alive with activity as we see various characters going about their daily routines. A hot bath vendor stands proudly beside his wooden cart, enticing passersby to indulge in a relaxing soak. Nearby, a skilled musician captivates the crowd with melodious tunes from his traditional instrument. Vegetable sellers push their carts filled with fresh produce while yoked laborers transport heavy loads down the street. In the distance, we spot a Shinto priest dressed in full ceremonial attire, adding an air of spirituality to this lively scene. Amidst all this commotion, charcoal carriers make their way through the crowd carrying sacks of fuel for cooking and heating purposes. And there is even an amma - a shampoo rubber - attending to her clients' hair needs. Every corner of this engraving tells its own story and showcases different aspects of Japanese life at that time. From traditional dress to cultural practices, it serves as both an informative historical document and a beautiful work of art capturing the essence of Tokyo's past. This print truly transports us back in time and allows us to appreciate the rich tapestry that was once present on these very streets.
