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 photo print, titled "Pepohoan Women; Mode of Carrying Child; Costume of Baksa Women; Lakoli, c. 1868" offers a glimpse into the daily life of Chinese women in the late 19th century. Taken by renowned Scottish photographer John Thomson, this image is part of his album "Illustrations of China and Its People, Volume II" from 1873. The photograph showcases two Pepohoan women carrying their infants using traditional slings while dressed in distinctive Baksa costumes. The intricate details captured in this collotype print highlight the rich cultural heritage and unique fashion sense prevalent among local people during that era. Thomson's lens beautifully captures the essence of motherhood as these women gracefully navigate through a bustling street in Lakoli, Taiwan. Their expressions reflect both strength and tenderness as they skillfully balance their babies while going about their daily tasks. This vintage artwork not only provides a visual documentation of historical Chinese society but also serves as an important reminder of our shared human experiences across time and cultures. It invites viewers to appreciate the beauty found within everyday moments and celebrates the resilience and nurturing nature inherent to motherhood. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this photograph stands as a testament to Thomson's remarkable talent for capturing intimate glimpses into diverse communities around the world. Through his lens, he bridges geographical boundaries by immortalizing scenes that continue to resonate with audiences today.
