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 showcases a Martinique creole woman, captured in the late 19th century by artist Henri Thiriat. The photograph, originally featured in Universal Geography, Maps & Illustrations, Vol XXXIV, Virtue & Co Limited (London, c1890), beautifully depicts the indigenous dress and headdress worn by this remarkable female figure. With her traditional costume and headscarf adorned with intricate details, she exudes elegance and grace. The image provides a fascinating glimpse into the ethnology and ethnography of Martinique during that era. Set against the backdrop of the Caribbean island's vibrant culture, this portrait captures not only the beauty of its people but also their rich heritage. The engraving highlights every delicate feature of her face while emphasizing her distinct headgear. Henri Thiriat's artistic talent shines through as he masterfully brings to life this local Martinique lady on paper. Through his lens or brush strokes, he immortalizes a moment frozen in time—a testament to both his skill as an artist and his appreciation for cultural diversity. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece from Heritage Images' collection curated by "The Print Collector" we are transported back to a different era—an age where tradition met modernity amidst breathtaking landscapes. This print serves as a reminder of our collective history and celebrates the resilience and beauty found within different cultures around the world.
