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
This print transports us back to the year 1720, offering a glimpse into the bustling port and city of Havana, Cuba. The image showcases a detailed copper engraving that beautifully captures the essence of this vibrant Latin American colony. As we delve into the scene, our eyes are immediately drawn to the magnificent harbor filled with ships of various sizes and shapes. These vessels serve as a testament to Havana's importance as a maritime hub during this era. Towering above them all is an imposing fort, standing tall against the backdrop of clear blue skies. The waterfront comes alive with activity - merchants unloading goods from ships, locals going about their daily routines, and visitors marveling at the sights before them. The architecture reflects both Spanish colonial influences and unique Cuban charm, creating a picturesque blend that characterizes Havana's distinctive identity. This scenic view offers us not only a window into Havana's past but also provides insight into its significance within Mesoamerica and New Spain. It serves as a reminder of Cuba's rich history and cultural heritage. The Granger Collection has masterfully preserved this piece through time so that we may appreciate its beauty today. This print is more than just an artwork; it is an invitation to explore Havana's storied past and immerse ourselves in its captivating allure
