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 beautiful photograph captures a poignant moment from a Japanese wedding ceremony in the 1910s, as the bride, dressed in traditional attire, shares a ritualistic drink of sake with her new parents-in-law. The act of drinking sake together is an essential part of the Shinto wedding ceremony in Japan, symbolizing the union of two families and the expression of love and respect between the bride and her new parents. The bride's tender gaze towards her parents-in-law and their warm smiles reflect the deep sense of connection and unity that is at the heart of this traditional Japanese matrimonial rite. This historical image offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Japanese weddings and the importance of family in Japanese society.
