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 woodblock print, titled "The Poet Sojo Henjo" from the series "Modern Children as the Six Immortal Poets" by Kitagawa Utamaro, dates back to the 19th century in Japan during the Edo and Tokugawa periods. The image showcases a young boy, dressed in traditional Japanese attire, portraying the poet Sojo Henjo from the 9th century. The boy is depicted in a thoughtful and contemplative posture, with a rose in hand, symbolizing the poet's connection to Buddhism and the immortal poets' association with the flower in Japanese literature. The intricate detail of the boy's clothing, including the layered kimono and obi, as well as his black hair styled in the traditional topknot, highlights the artistic skill of Utamaro. The use of bold colors, such as black, pink, and purple, adds depth and vibrancy to the print. This artwork is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Japan and the significance of poetry and literature in its history. The series "Modern Children as the Six Immortal Poets" was a popular artistic school during the Edo period, and Utamaro's work showcases the beauty and elegance of the traditional Japanese aesthetic. The Poet Sojo Henjo print is a must-see for anyone interested in Asian art, art history, or the cultural traditions of Japan. It is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world.
