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
In this woodcut print titled "Chin en no kesho - shin nippon, Applying make-up and new Japan" artist Kobayashi Kiyochika takes us on a visual journey through the changing landscape of Japan in 1895. The print measures 37.7 x 24.7 cm and is filled with vibrant colors that bring the scene to life. At first glance, we see a battleship, an emblem of power and strength, engaging in an unexpected activity – applying make-up or lather before shaving. This juxtaposition challenges our preconceived notions about warships and invites us to reflect on the duality of human nature. Moving to the bottom image, we encounter two men walking alongside a woman holding a parasol while accompanied by a child. One man appears to be laughing heartily, suggesting joy or amusement shared among friends or family members enjoying their leisurely stroll. Kiyochika's artwork captures not only the physical transformation happening in Japan during this period but also hints at deeper societal changes taking place beneath the surface. As modernization sweeps across the nation, traditional values intertwine with emerging influences from abroad. The intricate details within this print invite viewers to delve into its layers of meaning and contemplate how these themes resonate with their own experiences in today's ever-changing world. This print from Quint Lox's Liszt Collection serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact that offers glimpses into Japan's past while encouraging dialogue about its future trajectory
