23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 "Singapore Palanquin" takes us back to the 19th century in Southeast Asia. The image showcases a traditional mode of transportation known as a palanquin, commonly used by Singaporeans during that era. The scene depicts a beautifully drawn horse pulling the ornate palanquin through what appears to be an Asian countryside. The attention to detail is remarkable, from the intricate design of the carriage to the majestic presence of the horse itself. This artwork not only captures a moment in history but also provides insight into Singapore's rich cultural heritage. It reminds us of how people traveled before modern means of transportation became prevalent on this bustling island nation. The print evokes a sense of nostalgia and curiosity about life in 19th-century Singapore. It invites viewers to imagine themselves being transported back in time, experiencing firsthand this unique form of travel and witnessing daily life unfold amidst lush landscapes. As we admire this enchanting image, let us appreciate both its artistic value and its historical significance.
