The View From Machu Picchu
Three Peruvian Indians stand in traditional dress on a masonry ledge of the ancient Incan city of Machu Picchu and look out over a deep valley at one of the Amazons source streams, early 20th Century. The site was a palace and temple complex, probably used as a seasonal retreat by Incan nobility. It was probably built in the mid-1400s and was inhabited until the Spanish Conquest in 1532. It was rediscovered by Hiram Bingham of Yale University in 1911. (Photo by Henry Clay Gipson/Frederic Lewis/Getty Images)

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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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.

The View From Machu Picchu - A Glimpse into Incan Nobility's Seasonal Retreat
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Henry Clay Gipson, we are transported back to the early 20th century and presented with a mesmerizing view from the ancient Incan city of Machu Picchu. Three Peruvian Indians, adorned in their vibrant traditional dress, stand proudly on a masonry ledge overlooking a deep valley that houses one of the Amazon's source streams. Machu Picchu, once a palace and temple complex reserved for Incan nobility during their seasonal retreats, is an awe-inspiring testament to pre-Columbian culture. Built in the mid-1400s and inhabited until the Spanish Conquest in 1532, it remained hidden from the world until its rediscovery by Hiram Bingham of Yale University in 1911. The photograph showcases not only the intricate stonework and architectural marvels of this lost city but also highlights its breathtaking natural surroundings. The towering cliffs and chasms create a dramatic backdrop against which these Peruvian natives proudly pose. As we gaze upon this image, we cannot help but feel drawn into an adventure filled with archaeological wonders and exploration. It serves as a reminder of both our human history and our innate curiosity to uncover ancient mysteries. Frederic Lewis has masterfully curated this piece from Fine Art Storehouse, allowing us to appreciate not only its historical significance but also its artistic beauty. This photo print
