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.

This print titled "NATIVE AMERICAN CANOE, 1547" takes us back in time to the early days of America's discovery. The image showcases a Native American man skillfully navigating a dugout canoe along the tranquil waters of a river. With his strong arms and focused gaze, he effortlessly propels the vessel forward using an oar. The woodcut from Fernandez de Oviedos' renowned book "La Historia General de las Indias" captures not only a moment in history but also provides insight into the daily life of indigenous people during this era. It offers a glimpse into their transportation methods and their deep connection with nature. As we observe this scene, we can't help but marvel at the simplicity yet effectiveness of such traditional watercraft. The craftsmanship involved in creating these dugout canoes is evident as they seamlessly blend with their surroundings. This image transports us to an untouched world where rivers were highways and exploration was fueled by curiosity and bravery. It reminds us of the rich cultural heritage that existed long before European settlers arrived on these shores. "NATIVE AMERICAN CANOE, 1547" serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece, allowing us to appreciate the resilience and ingenuity of Native American communities who thrived in harmony with nature for centuries before colonization altered their way of life forever.
