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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable 50cm high sandstone bracket depicting a yakshi, or tree-goddess, from a Jain Stupa dating back to the 2nd century. The image, part of the V&A's prestigious collection, beautifully captures the essence of this ancient artifact found in Mathura, Uttar Pradesh. In vibrant color and intricate detail, we see a female figure standing gracefully with her arm raised in an expressive gesture. Her nakedness symbolizes purity and divinity within Jainism, a religion deeply rooted in spiritual enlightenment and non-violence. The studio shot against a black background enhances the focus on this mesmerizing deity. As we gaze upon her serene countenance and delicate features, it is impossible not to be captivated by her ethereal presence. This photograph transports us back in time to an era when devotion was expressed through artistry and craftsmanship. It serves as a testament to India's rich cultural heritage and religious traditions that continue to inspire awe even today. As we delve into the depths of this image, we are reminded of the power that art holds - transcending time and space to connect us with our ancestors' beliefs and spirituality. This yakshi stands as both an object of beauty and reverence; she invites us to contemplate our place within the vast tapestry of existence while honoring centuries-old traditions that have shaped humanity's collective consciousness.
