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 showcases the Page 3 Profile of the Island of St. Jago, Cape Verde Island, created by William Hodges between 1768 and 1775. The artwork is part of a collection housed in the Mitchell Library at the State Library of New South Wales. Hodges' intricate pencil, pen & ink, and wash drawing takes us on a visual journey to this enchanting island. The profile depicts an awe-inspiring landscape with its majestic mountains and sprawling landmasses. As we explore this topographic marvel, we are transported back to Captain Cook's Second Voyage (1772-1775), during which Hodges documented his observations through sketches and watercolors. The attention to detail in this piece is remarkable; it not only serves as a testament to Hodges' artistic talent but also highlights the importance of mapping and surveying during that era. This topographic profile offers valuable insights into the geographical features of St. Jago while providing a glimpse into eighteenth-century exploration. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, our imagination runs wild with thoughts of adventure and discovery. We can almost feel ourselves stepping foot on that distant shore, ready to embark on our own expedition through time and space. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate both the beauty of nature captured by Hodges' skilled hand and the significance of scientific exploration during one of history's most fascinating periods - all within a single frame.
