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 captures the moment of personal adornment during the initiation ceremony into the third degree of an official membership cult or society. The image, a color lithograph created by American School in the 19th century, showcases an American Indian individual receiving intricate facial decorations as part of their induction. The artwork is from a private collection and was originally featured in an article on The Sia by Matilda Coxe Stevenson. It appeared in the Eleventh Annual Report of the Bureau of Ethnology to the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution in 1889-90, directed by J. W. Powell and published by Government Printing Office in 1894. The illustration provides valuable insight into ethnographic studies and social practices among Native American tribes during this time period. It highlights both the significance placed on personal adornment within these cultures and offers a glimpse into their rich history. With its ornate designs painted onto tribal members' faces, this image represents not only indigenous traditions but also serves as a testament to cultural diversity within North America. Its inclusion within anthropological literature further emphasizes its importance as a historical artifact. This print from Bridgeman Images allows viewers to appreciate both the beauty and complexity found within different societies across America's vast landscapes throughout history.
