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 print takes us back to the year 1847, immersing us in a scene of cultural significance. The image showcases the Headman of a vibrant Indian village as he presides over his court under the sheltering branches of a majestic banyan tree. This enchanting illustration is extracted from "The History of China and India" by Miss Julia Corner, an esteemed author whose work shed light on these ancient civilizations. In this rural setting, we witness the convergence of law and tradition as villagers gather around their respected leader. The atmosphere exudes tranquility, with nature's beauty harmonizing with human affairs. The towering banyan tree acts as both a physical landmark and spiritual shrine, symbolizing stability and wisdom within this close-knit community. Rendered through intricate engraving techniques, every detail comes to life: from the rustic attire worn by those present to the expressions etched upon their faces. Through this monochromatic lens, we are transported into a bygone era where customs prevailed over modernity. The collaboration between Unknown creator, Miss Corner's insightful narrative, and TJ Rawlins' skilled craftsmanship has resulted in an evocative piece that captures not only historical accuracy but also highlights the timeless essence of rural Indian life during the 19th century. As viewers engage with this print today, they are invited to appreciate its artistic merits while contemplating how societies have evolved since then - yet still hold onto traditions that shape their identity even now.
