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
In this engraving from 1879, we are transported to the coast of Long Island, where a lone fisherman patiently awaits a signal from his companion. The scene is set against the backdrop of the vast Atlantic Ocean, its waves crashing gently onto the sandy beach. The late afternoon light casts long shadows on the horse-drawn cart nearby, hinting at the passing hours. The fisherman's weathered face reflects years of dedication to his craft as he gazes out into the horizon with anticipation. His net lies neatly beside him, ready to be cast into action at any moment. This particular fishing expedition focuses on capturing menhaden fish - a staple in New York State's thriving fishing industry during that era. This evocative image captures not only a snapshot in time but also serves as a window into an important part of American history. It showcases both man's reliance on nature for sustenance and their ability to adapt and harness its resources for economic gain. Granger Art on Demand has masterfully preserved this piece by Granger NYC from their extensive collection. As we gaze upon this print today, we can't help but feel connected to our past while appreciating how far we have come since those days along Long Island's coastline.
