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 titled "Three men, and carp" by Totoya Hokkei takes us back to the Edo period in Japan. The image is part of the renowned "Hokkei Manga, Shohen" collection by Uwoya Hokkei, published in 1814 but reprinted in 1924. In this artwork, three men are depicted alongside a magnificent carp swimming gracefully in water. The attention to detail is remarkable as every scale on the fish's body is meticulously captured through woodblock printing techniques. The monochrome palette adds a timeless quality to the composition. The artist skillfully portrays the connection between man and nature prevalent during that era. These individuals appear deeply engrossed in observing or perhaps even admiring the beauty of aquatic life. Their presence evokes a sense of tranquility and reverence for these creatures. Louise Norton Brown's book "Block Printing & Book Illustration in Japan" further explores this artistic school from early 20th century Japan, shedding light on its historical significance and cultural context. This photograph print serves as a window into Japanese art history, offering viewers an opportunity to appreciate both the technical mastery of woodblock printing and the profound relationship between humans and their natural surroundings during that time period.
