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 photograph print showcases a hand-carved wooden Santo figure created by Ranka S. Woods in the late 1930s. The image, titled "Santo," offers a glimpse into the rich artistic heritage of American decorative arts during the 1930s and 1940s. The Santo, a traditional representation of Saint Anthony of Padua in Catholic Christianity, stands proudly against a plain background, allowing the intricately carved details to take center stage. The figure's face is serene and expressive, with deep-set eyes and a gentle smile. The robes are meticulously carved, revealing the skill and dedication of the artist's hand. The Santo is not only a work of art but also a functional and decorative piece, reflecting the importance of religious iconography in American homes during this period. The figure's wooden base is simple yet elegant, adding to its overall charm. Ranka S. Woods, the creator of this masterpiece, was a renowned American artist known for her wood carvings, watercolor graphite and gouache on paperboard, and handicrafts. Her works were featured in various galleries and museums across the United States, including the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. This Santo figure, with its vibrant colors and intricate carving, is a testament to the rich artistic traditions of the United States during the 20th century. It is a valuable addition to any collection of American decorative arts, religious art, or heritage items, and a reminder of the beauty and significance of handcrafted objects in our lives.
