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
Travel Views of Japan and Korea," a captivating photographic series by Arnold Genthe, transports us back in time to the early 1900s. This collection of images, taken in 1908, offers a rare glimpse into the daily life and scenic beauty of Japan and Korea during this era. Arnold Genthe, a renowned German-American photographer, captured these images with a keen eye for detail and a deep appreciation for the unique cultural nuances of his subjects. The series showcases a diverse range of scenes, from bustling coastal markets and serene oceanfront vistas to intimate moments of children at play. One particularly striking image in the series depicts a group of Japanese children frolicking naked on a beach. The image, both playful and candid, captures the carefree spirit of childhood and the natural beauty of the seaside. Elsewhere, we see boats laden with cargo making their way across the water, adding a sense of transportation and movement to the collection. Another image captures a scene of Korean fishermen at work, their boats docked at the water's edge. The men, dressed in traditional clothing, are shown casting their nets into the ocean, their faces etched with determination and focus. These images offer a window into a bygone era, providing a valuable record of the people, places, and cultures of Japan and Korea during the early 20th century. The use of nitrate negatives adds to the historical significance of the series, as this photographic process was gradually replaced by more modern methods in the decades that followed. Today, these images serve as an important reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Japan and Korea, and the enduring allure of travel and exploration. The Library of Congress, where this series is housed, is a testament to the importance of preserving historical records for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
