Buddha Buddhist Buddhists Colossal Korea Korean Natural Setting Place Shrine Size
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.

Travel Views of Japan and Korea,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating collection of photographs taken by Arnold Genthe in 1908, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of two ancient civilizations. This stunning series of images, now held in the Library of Congress, transports us back in time to the early 20th century when Genthe captured the essence of these countries through his lens. Arnold Genthe, a renowned American photographer, traveled extensively through Japan and Korea, documenting their unique landscapes, temples, shrines, and people. In this image, we see a serene Buddhist temple nestled in a natural setting, surrounded by lush trees and plants. The colossal Buddha statue, bathed in soft light, exudes a sense of tranquility and spirituality. The concept of religion and Buddhism plays a significant role in both Japanese and Korean cultures, and Genthe masterfully captures the essence of this deeply rooted tradition. The intricate details of the temple's architecture, the intricately carved statues, and the peaceful atmosphere all contribute to the overall feeling of reverence and awe. The size of the image, taken on nitrate negative, adds to its grandeur, making it an impressive addition to any art or heritage collection. The outdoor location and the natural setting of the temple further emphasize the connection between the built environment and the natural world. This photograph not only serves as a beautiful work of art but also as an important historical document, providing us with a window into the past and a deeper understanding of the cultural traditions that continue to shape Japan and Korea today. Genthe's Travel Views of Japan and Korea remain a testament to the power of photography to transport us to far-off places and transport us through time.
