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 woodblock print by Kitagawa Utamaro, created in 1797-98 during the Edo period in Japan, depicts a tender moment between a Japanese abalone diver and her child. The image showcases the delicate balance between work and motherhood as the woman nurses her son after a harvest at sea. The setting is beautifully portrayed with hints of wetness from the ocean lingering in the air. The late afternoon light casts a soft glow on both mother and child, emphasizing their bond amidst their surroundings. The diver is dressed in an elegant kimono, showcasing her grace even in this intimate moment. Utamaro's attention to detail is evident through his depiction of the woman's hair being combed while she lovingly nourishes her child. This small act speaks volumes about maternal care and tenderness. The use of woodblock printing adds depth and texture to this fine art piece, enhancing its overall beauty. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical features but also the emotional connection between mother and child. This print belongs to Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, offering viewers an opportunity to appreciate historical artwork that celebrates everyday life moments. It serves as a reminder of our shared humanity across time and cultures—a timeless portrayal of love, strength, and nurturing instincts that transcend generations.
