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 woodblock print, titled "Fond of Sake (Sakezuki)," is a masterpiece created by the renowned Japanese artist Kitagawa Utamaro in the early 19th century. Part of his series "Eight Views of Favorite Things of Today," this artwork captures a moment of leisure and enjoyment in Edo-period Japan.
In the image, two elegantly dressed women are depicted enjoying sake, a traditional Japanese rice wine. Their intricate kimonos and carefully styled hair reflect the fashion and customs of the time. The detailed block printing technique used by Utamaro brings out vibrant colors and textures, adding to the overall charm of the scene.
Utamaro was known for his portraits of beautiful women, capturing their grace and elegance with precision. This particular piece showcases his skill in portraying everyday life with a touch of artistry.
As you gaze upon this print, you can almost hear the laughter and chatter between these two women as they savor their drink. It serves as a window into a bygone era, where simple pleasures like sharing sake with friends were cherished moments worth immortalizing in art.
