Abandoned Absence Arid Barren Blue Sky
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
In this print by Mark van Aardt, we are transported to the hauntingly beautiful ghost town of Kolmanskop in Namibia, Southern Africa. The image captures a mesmerizing scene of abandoned houses standing silently amidst an arid and barren landscape, with a majestic sand dune dominating the foreground. The absence of human presence is palpable as nature reclaims its territory, engulfing these once vibrant homes in a sea of golden sand. Each weathered wall and broken window tells a story of lives lived and dreams forgotten. It's as if time has stood still here, frozen in an eternal moment of abandonment. Against the backdrop of a clear blue sky that stretches endlessly above, one can't help but feel both awe-inspired by the vastness of nature's power and a sense of melancholy for what was lost. The contrast between man-made structures and the raw beauty of untouched desert creates an intriguing visual dichotomy. Van Aardt's expert use of color enhances the overall impact; warm earth tones harmonize with cool blues to create a visually striking composition that draws us into this forgotten world. This print serves as a poignant reminder that even in desolation there is beauty to be found - it invites us to reflect on our own impermanence while marveling at the resilience and grandeur of nature.
