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 print showcases an oil mill in action, powered by a pair of strong oxen. Engraved by Poisson, this image is a remarkable depiction of the industriousness and hard work that characterized rural life in India during the 18th century. The scene captures the essence of agricultural labor as two oxen tirelessly turn the large wooden wheel, powering the machinery that extracts precious oil from seeds or nuts. The workers can be seen guiding the animals with care and precision, ensuring a smooth operation. The whip held by one male worker serves as a reminder of how these magnificent creatures were trained to respond to commands. Set against a backdrop of lush countryside, this engraving transports us back in time to witness firsthand the vital role played by agriculture in Indian society. It evokes feelings of admiration for both man and beast as they toil together under the open sky. This exquisite piece from Voyages aux Indes et à la Chine offers us not only a glimpse into historical farming practices but also invites contemplation on our relationship with nature and our reliance on its resources. A true testament to human ingenuity and cooperation with animals, this print is sure to captivate anyone who appreciates artistry combined with cultural significance.
