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 lithograph, titled "The Royal Niger Company's Expedition, everyday Scenes on the River Niger" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into life along the historic river. Created by Charles J. Staniland in 1897, this print showcases a bustling scene filled with vibrant details and cultural nuances. In the foreground, we see a log of mahogany being prepared for shipping, symbolizing the region's rich natural resources. Women in colorful traditional dress can be seen navigating market canoes, skillfully maneuvering through the waters of the Niger. A boat arrives at its destination as locals eagerly await its cargo. The composition also highlights various aspects of daily life along the river. A head-shaving session takes place under a makeshift tent while nearby merchants sell their wares, including yams and other produce. Houssa soldiers stand proudly in their traditional attire, adding an element of strength and authority to the scene. Asaba and Axim are mentioned as specific locations within this vast African landscape – each contributing to the diverse tapestry that is captured within this print. "The Royal Niger Company's Expedition" provides viewers with an intimate look into both commerce and culture during this time period. It serves as a reminder of Africa's rich history and its enduring connection to rivers like Benue and Niger – lifelines that have shaped communities for centuries.
