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 showcases a remarkable collection of Paleolithic harpoons, crafted from bone, ivory, and antler. Dating back to the Magdalenian period around 9000 B. C. , these ancient artifacts offer us a glimpse into the primitive tools used by our ancestors during the Stone Age. The intricate craftsmanship exhibited in each harpoon is truly awe-inspiring. The delicate curves and precise carvings on these weapons highlight the ingenuity and resourcefulness of early humans. These harpoons were essential for hunting and fishing, enabling our forebearers to secure sustenance from their natural surroundings. As we study this image, we are transported back in time to an era when survival depended on one's ability to adapt and innovate with limited resources. The discovery of such artifacts provides invaluable insights into human evolution and technological advancements throughout history. The significance of these Paleolithic harpoons extends beyond their functional purpose; they represent a tangible link between past civilizations and our present understanding of humanity's journey. They serve as reminders that even thousands of years ago, people possessed the skills necessary to create sophisticated tools that aided their daily lives. Granger Art on Demand has beautifully captured this snapshot from archaeology's treasure trove, allowing us to appreciate both the artistic value and historical importance of these ancient relics.
