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.

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 Reihana Waha-nui, a prominent figure in Maori history. The illustration, taken from John White's Ancient History of the Maori, beautifully captures the essence of this influential leader. Reihana Waha-nui was a chief and tribal ruler belonging to the Nguti Maniapoto iwi from the Waikato-Waitomo region of New Zealand. In this portrait, Reihana Waha-nui exudes power and authority. Dressed in a traditional suit, his strong presence is enhanced by his striking facial tattoo adorned with intricate designs that symbolize his status and lineage. His quarter-length moustache adds an air of sophistication to his already commanding appearance. The engraving skillfully portrays not only Reihana Waha-nui's physical features but also hints at the depth of character behind them. It invites us to delve into the rich history and cultural heritage embodied by this remarkable individual. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness the strength and resilience of Maori leaders like Reihana Waha-nui who played pivotal roles in shaping their communities. This print serves as a testament to their legacy and reminds us of the importance of honoring indigenous cultures worldwide.
