31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 from the 19th century takes us back in time to British Columbia and Vancouver Island. The engraving, created by an English School artist, offers a glimpse into the street scenes of this Canadian region. In the foreground, an Indian woman gracefully walks along the bustling streets with a child by her side. Their presence adds a touch of cultural diversity to this vibrant cityscape. The image showcases Victoria, the capital city of British Columbia on Vancouver Island. It is fascinating to see how this area has evolved over time, as it was still relatively new when this engraving was made in 1863. Native Americans can be seen in traditional attire, their conical form headdresses standing out amidst the crowd. The significance of this historical moment lies not only in its depiction of daily life but also in its representation of North America during that era. The children playing nearby symbolize innocence and hope for future generations. As we observe this scene through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded of the rich heritage and diverse cultures that have shaped Canada's western hemisphere throughout history. This print serves as a testament to our shared past and invites us to reflect on how far we have come since those early days in British Columbia and Vancouver Island.
