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 captures a significant moment in history, showcasing Christopher Columbus alongside Native Americans. Taken from the renowned Le Costume Ancien et Moderne, Volume I, plate 4 by Jules Ferrario and engraved by D. K. Bonatti, this aquatint print published in the early 1820s-30s offers a glimpse into the encounter between two worlds. In this image, we witness Columbus as he stands on the shore of the New World, surrounded by tribesmen adorned in their traditional attire. The composition beautifully portrays both curiosity and tension as these diverse cultures come face to face for the first time. Columbus's presence exudes an air of conquest and exploration while simultaneously reflecting his role as an explorer who stumbled upon new lands. The Native Americans' expressions reveal a mix of intrigue and apprehension towards these foreign visitors. The inclusion of a bell symbolizes communication and exchange between these distinct civilizations. It serves as a reminder that this meeting marked not only the discovery of America but also initiated centuries-long interactions that would shape our world's history. This remarkable artwork from Palagi Pelagio's private collection showcases Bridgeman Images' commitment to preserving historical moments through visual storytelling. As we gaze at this print, let us reflect on how encounters like these forever altered human civilization and continue to shape our understanding of cultural diversity today.
