31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 12th century in Japan, where we witness the vivid depiction of sinners suffering in one of the hells of Buddhism. Attributed to Tosa Mitsunaga, this Japanese scroll offers a glimpse into the profound religious beliefs and artistic mastery of that era. The scene unfolds with haunting intensity as tormented souls endure unimaginable agony within this infernal realm. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every aspect of their suffering to life - from contorted expressions etched with despair to bodies writhing in anguish. This visual representation serves as a powerful reminder of the consequences awaiting those who succumb to evil deeds. Within Buddhist teachings, hell is an integral part of samsara, the cycle of birth and death. It symbolizes a place where sinners face retribution for their actions before being reborn into subsequent lives. By highlighting these realms through art, Buddhists sought not only to inspire fear but also encourage moral conduct and spiritual growth among believers. As we gaze upon this ancient masterpiece, it transports us back centuries ago when religion played a central role in shaping society and individuals' lives. It invites contemplation on our own actions and choices while reminding us that redemption is possible even amidst such harrowing circumstances. This print from Granger Art on Demand stands as a testament to both the enduring power of Buddhism's teachings and humanity's fascination with exploring themes like death, suffering, and salvation throughout history.
