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 print captures a bushman of the Kalahari country in the 19th century, as he embarks on an exhilarating hunt for big game using a poisoned arrow. The image, taken by a European photographer, showcases the historical significance of this indigenous hunting technique. The bushman's intense focus is palpable as he prepares to release his deadly weapon. His poised stance and expert grip on the bow reveal years of honed skill and experience. This photograph not only documents an ancient practice but also highlights the bravery and resourcefulness of these skilled hunters. The image was featured in More Heroes of Modern Adventure by T. C. Bridges and H. Hessell Tiltman in 1929, illustrating how this bushman's story resonated with readers even decades later. It serves as a testament to the enduring allure of adventure tales throughout history. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era when heroes were defined by their courage and survival instincts rather than superpowers or gadgets. This early 20th-century photograph allows us to appreciate both the rich cultural heritage of the bushmen people and their extraordinary hunting techniques that have been passed down through generations. In collaboration with Bridgeman Images, Fine Art Finder brings you this compelling glimpse into history - reminding us that true heroism can be found within ordinary individuals who possess extraordinary skills forged through centuries-old traditions.
