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 photo print, titled "PENNELL: PANAMA CANAL, 1912. The gates Pedro Miguel" takes us back in time to witness the remarkable construction of the Panama Canal. Etched by Joseph Pennell in 1912, this engraving showcases the early stages of building the Pedro Miguel Lock gates. The image portrays a scene of immense industrial progress as workers labor tirelessly amidst towering machinery and railroad tracks. The enormity of the lock gates is evident, with their intricate design and solid structure taking shape before our eyes. It is a testament to human ingenuity and determination that such an ambitious project was undertaken over a century ago. The etching's monochromatic palette adds depth and intensity to every detail captured by Pennell's skilled hand. The stark contrast between light and shadow emphasizes both the magnitude of the construction site and the resilience of those involved in its creation. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back to a pivotal moment when man conquered nature's obstacles through sheer willpower. This print serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to overcome challenges through innovation and collaboration. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this extraordinary snapshot from history, allowing us to appreciate not only Joseph Pennell's artistic talent but also the monumental achievement that forever changed global trade routes –the Panama Canal.
