31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 19th century image showcases a costumed monkey in a seated position, delicately holding a chestnut in its hand. The monkey, dressed in intricate clothing, is a fine example of an Okimono, a type of ornamental Japanese ceramic sculpture. The monkey is made of Hirado Mikawachi Ware, a porcelain with biscuit reserve brown and light green tinged glazes and blue underglaze. The monkey's expressive face and lifelike posture add to its charm, making it a beloved collectible in the realm of heritage art. The monkey, a common motif in Asian art, is a symbol of mischief, intelligence, and good fortune. The chestnut, a popular fruit in Japan, represents longevity and prosperity. The combination of the monkey and the chestnut adds depth and meaning to this charming piece. This photograph, taken in a studio setting, provides a close-up view of the intricate details of the monkey and the chestnut. The monkey's costume, with its vibrant colors and intricate patterns, is a testament to the skill and artistry of the Japanese ceramists of the 19th century. The exact creator of this piece remains unknown, adding to its allure and mystery. It is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), a renowned institution dedicated to collecting and preserving art from around the world. This image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the artistry of the 19th century.
