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 from the 18th century takes us back in time to witness a unique encounter between Europeans and Japanese dignitaries. The image showcases a group of Europeans, brought before a local dignitary during an expedition to Japan. As we delve into this historical moment frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to the intriguing line of gallows that stand prominently in the foreground. The photograph offers a glimpse into the complex dynamics of politics, government, crime, punishment, exploration, adventure, and law during this era. It sparks curiosity about the circumstances surrounding this meeting and what led these Europeans to find themselves in such an unfamiliar setting. As we study each individual's expression and body language captured by Hulton Archive's lens, we can't help but wonder about their thoughts and emotions at that precise moment. Were they filled with trepidation or awe? What cultural exchange took place between these two distinct worlds? This thought-provoking image serves as a reminder of how history has shaped our present-day understanding of different cultures and societies. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come since then while acknowledging the importance of preserving such visual records for future generations. Hulton Archive's skillful composition transports us back centuries ago when Europe met Japan—a powerful testament to human curiosity and exploration that continues to inspire today.
