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 captures the breathtaking beauty of Purple Heather growing in Mount Rainier National Park, circa 1916. Renowned artist Asahel Curtis skillfully captured this scenic view as part of a souvenir folder titled "The Switzerland of America". The majestic mountain range serves as a stunning backdrop for the vibrant purple heather, creating a picturesque vista that epitomizes the natural wonders found within this national park. Mount Rainier, with its snow-capped peaks and distant allure, stands tall in the background, showcasing its grandeur against the clear blue sky. This century-old photograph transports us back to an era when tourism was beginning to flourish in Washington state and highlights Mount Rainier's status as a popular tourist attraction even then. As we gaze upon this landscape masterpiece, we are reminded of nature's ability to captivate our senses and transport us to another time. The Cascade Range provides an awe-inspiring geographical feature that adds depth and dimension to this scene. The use of color by Curtis further enhances our appreciation for the delicate beauty of purple heather amidst such rugged terrain. This vintage print is not only a testament to Asahel Curtis' artistic talent but also serves as a historical artifact from early 20th-century America. It allows us to glimpse into the past and marvel at how Mount Rainier National Park has remained an enduring symbol of natural wonder throughout generations.
