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 image captures the grace and elegance of a Japanese Geisha in the early 20th century as she engages in the traditional art of flower arranging. Dressed in an intricately designed kimono, the Geisha kneels before a low flowerpot, her expression focused and serene as she carefully selects and arranges the blossoms. The Geisha's role in Japanese society was multifaceted, serving not only as an entertainer but also as a highly skilled artist and cultural ambassador. Flower arranging, or Ikebana, was one of the many arts mastered by Geishas, reflecting their deep connection to nature and the changing seasons. The delicate balance and harmony of the flowers in the arrangement mirror the precision and refinement of the Geisha's own movements and demeanor. This photograph, taken circa 1904, offers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural significance of the Geisha and the traditional arts they practiced.
