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 antique print takes us back to the 18th century, offering a glimpse into the coastal beauty of Sierra Leone. The intricate map and illustration showcase the rich history and geography of this African nation, with its stunning landscapes and connection to the Atlantic Ocean. The print, created by renowned French cartographers Bellin and Schley, is a testament to their mastery in capturing both artistic expression and navigational accuracy. The attention to detail is evident as they depict mountains, hills, islands, and even ships sailing through the bay. A key legend provides further insight into the topography of Sierra Leone's western region. As we explore this vintage artwork, we are transported to an era where physical maps were cherished documents that guided sailors across vast oceans. The engraving technique used adds depth and texture to every line drawn on paper. The color image beautifully captures the vibrant hues of land meeting sea along Sierra Leone's coast. It invites us to imagine what life was like during this period - a time when French culture influenced not only art but also exploration. Hemera Technologies has preserved this historical gem for our enjoyment today. This horizontal print serves as a reminder of how art can intertwine with history, showcasing both natural wonders and human ingenuity in one frame.
