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
In this woodcut print titled "Setsubun mamemaki, Mamemaki: expelling demons with beans" we are transported back to a scene between 1730 and 1790 during the annual bean throwing festival. The print measures 22.7 x 27.3 cm and beautifully captures a moment of both anticipation and unity within a family. The image depicts family members gathered in a room, their expressions filled with excitement as they prepare to partake in the age-old tradition of expelling demons from their dwelling. A man stands at the center, holding a box filled with beans, ready to toss them into the room. His poised stance suggests his determination to ward off any negative spirits that may be lurking. As our eyes wander through the print, we notice the meticulous details that bring this scene to life - from the intricate patterns on traditional Japanese clothing worn by each family member to the warm glow emanating from paper lanterns hanging overhead. This snapshot in time encapsulates not only an important cultural event but also highlights the significance of familial bonds and shared rituals in Japanese society. It serves as a reminder of how traditions can bridge generations and strengthen relationships. Quint Lox's skillful portrayal transports us into this vibrant moment where joy, hope, and belief intertwine as families come together to protect their homes from malevolent forces using nothing more than humble beans.
