Burial Neolithic


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 print by Peter Williams showcases the remarkable Trethevy Quoit, an ancient Neolithic dolmen burial chamber nestled in the picturesque village of St Cleer, Cornwall. The image captures the essence of this historical site, revealing its profound significance and architectural beauty. Standing proudly amidst a serene landscape, Trethevy Quoit stands as a testament to human ingenuity and craftsmanship from over 4,000 years ago. The composition highlights five imposing standing stones that form the structure's base, supporting an awe-inspiring large capstone above. This extraordinary feat of engineering is a poignant reminder of our ancestors' reverence for their departed loved ones. The photograph expertly captures the play between light and shadow on these weathered stones, adding depth and texture to the scene. It invites us to contemplate not only the physicality of this ancient monument but also its spiritual purpose as a final resting place for those who came before us. Peter Williams skillfully brings out every intricate detail in his composition - from the moss-covered stones that bear witness to centuries gone by to the surrounding lush greenery that embraces this sacred space. Through his lens, we are transported back in time and invited to connect with our shared human history. This print serves as both a visual delight and an educational tool; it allows us to appreciate not only Cornwall's rich heritage but also encourages contemplation about life's transience and our place within it.
