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 stunning photograph captures the majestic beauty of Vernal Falls in Yosemite National Park, dating back to 1872. With a height of 350 feet, the waterfall cascades down the rocky terrain, creating a mesmerizing sight that has captivated visitors for centuries. The image was printed in 1876 using the albumen silver print technique from a glass negative, showcasing the craftsmanship and artistry of Carleton E. Watkins, who is attributed to this masterpiece. The sepia tones add an air of nostalgia and timelessness to the scene. Yosemite Valley's natural wonders are on full display in this photograph - from the domed rock formations to the lush forest surrounding Vernal Falls. The rugged landscape serves as a testament to nature's raw power and grandeur. As we gaze upon this heritage artwork today, we are transported back to America's Victorian era when exploring untouched wilderness became an essential part of cultural identity. This image represents not only a specific location but also embodies concepts such as adventure, exploration, and appreciation for our country's vast natural treasures. Let us cherish this glimpse into history through Heritage Art/Heritage Images' preservation efforts – reminding us of our connection with nature and inspiring future generations to protect these precious landscapes within Yosemite Valley California USA.
