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 titled "Merced Group from Sentinel Dome" by Carleton Watkins takes us back in time to the late 1800s. Watkins, an American photographer known for his stunning landscape images, captured this breathtaking scene between 1865 and 1866 using the albumen silver print technique. The photograph showcases the majestic beauty of the Merced Group as seen from Sentinel Dome. The towering granite peaks rise proudly against a clear blue sky, their rugged edges contrasting with the softness of the surrounding forest. The play of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to this remarkable natural vista. Watkins' meticulous attention to detail is evident in every element of this composition. From the intricate textures of rock formations to the delicate foliage below, he masterfully captures nature's grandeur in its purest form. The vastness of space combined with minute details invites viewers into a world where they can almost feel themselves standing on that very dome, taking in this awe-inspiring view firsthand. As we gaze upon this historical artifact from Liszt Collection, we are reminded not only of Watkins' artistic genius but also how photography has allowed us to preserve moments like these for generations to come. This image serves as a testament to both human creativity and our enduring fascination with nature's wonders – an everlasting reminder that some landscapes truly transcend time itself.
