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.

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 "Sketches in Borneo, Visit of the British Naval Squadron to Brunei" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the arrival of the British Naval Squadron in Brunei, capturing a snapshot of diplomacy and cultural exchange between nations. The scene is bustling with activity as officers from the Royal Navy are received by Vice Admiral Sir Nowell Salmon and other high-ranking officials. The architecture of the buildings surrounding them reflects the unique blend of local and colonial influences that defined this era. As we delve deeper into the picture, our eyes are drawn to a group of soldiers led by Rajah Brooke, symbolizing unity between military forces. In contrast, lush jungle paths remind us of Borneo's untamed beauty and exotic allure. At its heart lies an encounter between two worlds - Western naval power meets Asian royalty. The Sultan of Brunei stands tall amidst his people, showcasing both respect for tradition and openness to foreign visitors. This print not only captures a specific moment but also serves as a testament to historical events that shaped Southeast Asia. It invites contemplation on themes such as imperialism, exploration, and cross-cultural connections. With its intricate details and rich narrative, this engraving allows viewers to immerse themselves in an important chapter from our past while appreciating the artistry behind it.
