23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 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 watercolor painting by Dorling Kindersley transports us back to ancient Egypt, offering a glimpse into the ingenuity of its people. The illustration depicts a man and a young boy standing beside an early sundial, using a simple stick known as a gnomon. As the sun casts its rays upon the stone dial, their shadows reveal the passage of time. The scene is set outdoors, with the vastness of Egypt's landscape stretching out behind them. The artist skillfully captures the essence of this ancient civilization through vibrant colors and intricate details. Both figures are portrayed in traditional Egyptian attire, showcasing their North African ethnicity. The sundial itself takes center stage in this artwork - a semi-circle carved from stone material that stands as testament to human inventiveness even thousands of years ago. It serves as a reminder that our understanding and measurement of time has evolved over centuries. This image not only celebrates Ancient Egyptian culture but also highlights how knowledge was passed down through generations. The adult patiently teaches the child about this remarkable invention, fostering curiosity and learning at an early age. Dorling Kindersley's watercolor painting beautifully encapsulates both history and artistry in one frame, reminding us of humanity's timeless pursuit for knowledge and innovation.
