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 showcases the Seated Bodhisattva Maitreya, a remarkable artifact from the Pyu period in the 7th century. Created by an unknown artist, this bronze sculpture is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Burma (now Myanmar) and its deep connection to Buddhism. The image captures the serene presence of Bodhisattva Maitreya, who embodies compassion and enlightenment. The seated position exudes tranquility and invites contemplation. The craftsmanship evident in every detail speaks volumes about the skill and dedication of ancient artisans. Displayed at the Art Institute of Chicago's Asian collection, this artifact holds immense historical significance. It offers viewers a glimpse into a bygone era when art was not just decorative but also served as an expression of religious devotion. The color palette used in this photograph enhances our appreciation for both the beauty and antiquity of this artwork. Against a backdrop that complements its metallic sheen, we are transported back to ancient times where religion played a central role in shaping culture on the Asian continent. As we admire this piece, let us reflect upon how it represents more than just an object; it symbolizes centuries-old traditions and beliefs passed down through generations. This print serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with spirituality, leaving an indelible mark on human history.
