Artefact Artifact Implement Handaxe
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 photograph showcases two ancient blades from the Lower Acheulean Period, dating back to approximately 20,000 BC. Crafted from flint, these remarkable artifacts are a testament to the ingenuity and skill of our Paleolithic ancestors. The blades, on display at the Musee des Antiquites Nationales in St. Germain-en-Laye, France, offer a glimpse into the early stages of human toolmaking and weaponry. Each blade is meticulously shaped and honed to perfection, revealing the meticulous craftsmanship of its creator. These tools were not merely utilitarian objects but also symbols of survival and adaptation in an unforgiving world. They served as essential implements for hunting, cutting through tough materials with ease or even defending against predators. As we gaze upon this image captured by Fine Art Finder's lens, we cannot help but marvel at how far humanity has come since these humble beginnings. These blades represent a pivotal moment in our history when humans first harnessed their intelligence to shape their environment. Let us reflect on the significance of these ancient relics - they remind us that innovation has always been an integral part of our species' journey towards progress.
