Alaskan Fur Lined Coat Native American Indian
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, titled "Anvik Stareek or One More Leaf of Tobacco, from Alaska and its Resources" transports us to the rugged wilderness of 19th century Alaska. The image captures a Native American Indian in traditional attire, standing proudly amidst a backdrop of breathtaking natural beauty. Dressed in a fur-lined coat that provides both warmth and protection against the harsh elements, the subject exudes strength and resilience. His weathered face tells stories of survival and wisdom gained through generations. In his hand, he holds one more leaf of tobacco - perhaps an indulgence after a long day spent fishing for sustenance. The composition is masterfully engraved by John Andrew under the direction of William H. Dall, showcasing their meticulous attention to detail. Every line etched into this piece reflects not only the physical features but also the spirit and culture of this indigenous community. As we gaze upon this historical artifact captured by photographer H. W Elliot over a century ago, we are reminded of Alaska's rich resources - its abundant fish-filled waters teeming with life. This print serves as a window into an era where man lived harmoniously with nature; where survival depended on skillful hunting and gathering techniques passed down through generations. Intriguingly nostalgic yet timeless in its appeal, this photograph invites us to reflect on our connection with nature while honoring the traditions and heritage that have shaped our world today.
