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 "Boralesgamuwa, c1890" and taken by the talented artist Alfred William Amandus Plate, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the past. The image is part of the renowned collection called "The Hundred Best Views of Ceylon" published in 1910 by Plate Ltd in Colombo, Kandy & Nuwara Eliya. In this scene, we are transported to a quaint village street in Boralesgamuwa, Sri Lanka. The architecture reflects the rich Asian heritage with traditional buildings lining both sides of the road. The sunlight gracefully filters through the thatched roofs and casts beautiful shadows on the lane below. A group of local women can be seen walking along the avenue, carrying umbrellas to shield themselves from the sun's rays. Their presence adds life and vibrancy to this serene setting. It is fascinating to observe how people went about their daily lives during this era. This monochrome photograph not only captures a specific moment in time but also serves as a window into Sri Lanka's cultural history. Its detailed composition showcases an amalgamation of artistry and scientific precision – an exquisite blend between literature and science. As we gaze upon this remarkable vista from over a century ago, we are reminded of our connection to those who came before us and how they shaped our present-day world. This print truly encapsulates the essence of Ceylon's beauty while honoring its rich heritage for generations to come.
