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
In this photograph captured by Felice Beato, we are transported back in time to circa 1865 Japan. The image showcases a yakunin, a Japanese official responsible for maintaining order and security during the Edo period. Standing tall and proud, he is adorned with a unique piece of rainwear - a straw raincoat covered with delicate silk netting. The intricate craftsmanship of the coat is evident as every strand of straw is meticulously woven together to create an effective shield against the elements. Its waterproof nature ensures that even amidst heavy rainfall, the wearer remains dry and protected. This practical yet stylish garment reflects the ingenuity and attention to detail characteristic of Japanese fashion. The lone figure exudes strength and resilience as he stands confidently in his traditional attire. His sandal-clad feet firmly planted on the ground, he embodies both elegance and functionality. The portrait format allows us to focus solely on this remarkable individual, highlighting his importance within society. Felice Beato's masterful composition captures not only an exquisite piece of clothing but also offers us a glimpse into Japan's rich cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this timeless image, we are reminded of the beauty found in simplicity and tradition – qualities that continue to inspire contemporary fashion designers today.
