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 print from Granger Art on Demand transports us back to the year 1748, a crucial period in American history. The image showcases an authentic colonial document that holds immense significance for both England and its American colonies. The document itself is a Royal Act issued by King George II of England, encouraging the cultivation of indigo plants in the southern colonies. Indigo was highly valued during this era as it served as a vital source for dyeing textiles and producing ink. Through this historic artifact, we catch a glimpse into the intricate relationship between England and its American territories. It highlights how economic interests played a pivotal role in shaping colonial policies at that time. The text within the document remains hidden from our view but one can only imagine the detailed instructions and regulations it contained. This visual representation sparks curiosity about how these directives influenced agricultural practices and trade dynamics between America and England during this period. Overall, this print serves as a powerful reminder of our shared past while also shedding light on lesser-known aspects of colonial life. It invites us to reflect upon the complex historical forces that shaped early America's development while appreciating the beauty found within these centuries-old documents.
