Butter Cabinet Carving Pavilion Viii 1924
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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 captures a truly unique moment in history at the British Empire Exhibition - The Canadian Pavilion. The focal point of this image is the astonishing statue of Edward, Prince of Wales, carved entirely out of butter! This remarkable feat showcases the incredible talent and creativity that was on display at this prestigious event.
The attention to detail in the butter carving is simply astounding, with every feature of Prince Edward expertly sculpted to perfection. The juxtaposition of such a regal figure being depicted in such an unconventional medium adds an element of whimsy and charm to this historical photograph.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from 1924, we are transported back in time to a period when craftsmanship and artistry were highly revered. The Canadian Pavilion stands proudly in the background, serving as a testament to the strong ties between Canada and the British Empire.
This image serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural significance that was celebrated at exhibitions like these. It is a true treasure trove for anyone interested in exploring the intricacies of our past and gaining insight into how different forms of art can come together to create something truly extraordinary.
