Aquatic Life Ceremonial Mali Mask Seashell Shell Burkina Faso Mike Dixon
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 print showcases a mesmerizing Mask from Burkina Faso, a small country nestled between Ghana, Mali, and Niger. Despite its rich cultural heritage, Burkina Faso faces economic challenges and is considered one of the world's poorest nations. The mask itself is an exquisite example of African craftsmanship and represents the vibrant traditions of the region. Adorned with colorful shells sourced from aquatic life, this ceremonial artifact reflects the indigenous culture that has thrived in Burkina Faso for centuries. The intricate details carved into the mask's face reveal the skillful artistry of local artisans who have passed down their techniques through generations. Each line and curve tells a story, embodying the spirit and essence of African identity. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported to a land where ancient rituals come alive through art. The Mask from Burkina Faso serves as a powerful reminder of Africa's diverse cultural tapestry and its profound connection to nature. Through this photograph captured by CM Dixon (not affiliated with any company), we can appreciate both the beauty of this object and gain insight into its historical significance within Burkinabe society. It stands as a testament to human creativity across time and continents—a true treasure worth preserving for future generations to admire.
