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
This print titled "NATCHEZ: THE GREAT SUN" takes us back to the vibrant world of the Natchez Native Americans in 1758. The image showcases an important moment during a harvest festival, where we witness the grandeur and power of the Great Sun, ruler of the Natchez tribe. In this sketch by Antoine Le Page du Pratz, we see men carrying a sedan chair adorned with intricate designs and symbols representing their rich culture. It is within this majestic vehicle that the Great Sun is transported, symbolizing his elevated status and authority over his people. As autumn leaves fall gently around them, one can almost feel the anticipation and excitement in the air as they make their way through a bustling crowd. The procession captures not only a momentous event but also offers us a glimpse into everyday life for these indigenous communities. The attention to detail in this sketch allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in creating such an elaborate sedan chair and its significance as a mode of transportation for important figures like the Great Sun. This artwork serves as a reminder of our diverse history and invites us to explore and celebrate cultures that have shaped our world today.
