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.

View in the Delta of the Orinoco - A Journey up the Orinoco,
EDITORS COMMENTS
an 1875 photograph from Henry Walter Bates' "Illustrated Travels," offers a captivating glimpse into the heart of South America's Orinoco Delta. This image, published in London by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin, invites us on a journey up the Orinoco River, one of the major waterways of South America, flowing through Colombia and Venezuela. The photograph, taken in the 1870s, captures the breathtaking sunrise over the delta's vast, tranquil waters. The rising sun casts a warm, golden glow on the landscape, illuminating the dense vegetation that lines the riverbanks. The Orinoco River, a major tributary of the Amazon River, is a vital part of the solar system, connecting the Atlantic Ocean to the Amazon Basin. Henry Walter Bates, a British naturalist, and explorer, documented his travels in South America in this collection of illustrated journeys. The photograph is a testament to the rich natural beauty and scientific importance of the region. The Orinoco Delta, home to an abundance of diverse flora and fauna, was a source of fascination for Bates and his contemporaries. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the historical significance of the Orinoco River and its delta. The region has been inhabited for thousands of years, with evidence of human settlement dating back to the pre-Columbian era. Today, it remains an important cultural and economic center for the people of Colombia and Venezuela. The photograph, with its timeless beauty and scientific importance, invites us to explore the wonders of the natural world and the rich history of South America. It is a testament to the power of photography to transport us to new places and broaden our horizons. Whether you are a scientist, an explorer, or simply someone with a curiosity for the world around us, this photograph is sure to inspire and captivate.
