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 showcases a Spanish caravel sailing through the vast blue waters, its sails billowing in the wind. The ship proudly displays the red cross of Santiago, symbolizing its connection to Spain and its maritime heritage. This intricate detail is derived from the Atlas Portulano, an esteemed collection of maps created by Juan Martinez in 1587 during the age of discovery. The caravel itself represents a significant milestone in transportation and exploration during this era. With its sleek design and advanced navigational capabilities, it enabled Spanish sailors to venture into uncharted territories with confidence. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the late 16th-century maritime expeditions that shaped our understanding of the world. Every element captured within this photograph speaks volumes about history and adventure. From the meticulously crafted map detailing unexplored lands to the flag fluttering atop the mast, each component contributes to our fascination with exploration and discovery. Granger Art on Demand has expertly preserved this remarkable piece from their Carousel Collection for us all to admire. It serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge and our enduring spirit of curiosity that continues to drive us forward even today.
