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
INDIA: SNAKE AND CROW, 1887. A mesmerizing depiction of an intense combat between a cobra and a crow unfolds in this wood engraving from late 19th century India. The artist skillfully captures the raw power and primal instincts at play as these two iconic creatures clash in a battle for survival. The scene is set against the backdrop of an Indian landscape, with lush vegetation providing the perfect stage for this epic confrontation. The intricate details of the engraving bring to life every feather on the crow's wings and every scale on the cobra's sleek body. As we gaze upon this extraordinary spectacle, we are reminded of nature's eternal struggle for dominance. The snake, known for its venomous bite and deadly coils, represents danger and stealth. On the other hand, the crow symbolizes intelligence and adaptability. Intriguingly, amidst this fierce duel between predator and prey, men stand as spectators - their presence adding another layer of intrigue to this already fascinating composition. What thoughts run through their minds? Are they merely observers or do they see themselves reflected in this age-old conflict? This remarkable print by Granger Art on Demand transports us back to a time when art was used not only to capture beauty but also to explore profound themes that resonate across cultures and generations.
