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 photograph, titled "ALASKA: ESKIMO, c1929" transports us back in time to the vast marshes of Kotzebue, Alaska. The image captures an Eskimo muskrat hunter gracefully paddling through the serene waters in his kayak. Taken by renowned photographer Edward S. Curtis in 1929, this snapshot offers a rare glimpse into early 20th-century life in the Arctic. The hunter's boat glides effortlessly over the glassy surface of the marsh as he navigates with expert precision. Dressed in traditional fur garments and wearing a hood to shield himself from the elements, he blends seamlessly into his natural surroundings. The grassy landscape stretches out before him, creating a picturesque backdrop for this moment frozen in time. As we observe this native Alaskan man engaged in his daily hunt, we are reminded of the deep connection between humans and nature that has sustained indigenous cultures for centuries. His reliance on these waters for sustenance is evident as he skillfully maneuvers his paddle through the calm ocean beneath him. Edward S. Curtis masterfully captures not only a scene of transportation but also a profound sense of tranquility and harmony with nature. This photograph serves as both an artistic testament to human resilience and an invaluable historical document preserving a way of life that has since evolved. Displayed prominently on any wall or mantelpiece, this striking print from Granger Art on Demand invites viewers to reflect upon our shared heritage while celebrating one man's intimate
