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 evocative photograph captures a tender moment between a mother and her young son in the coastal town of Kismayo, Somalia, East Africa, during the 1920s. The mother, dressed in traditional Somali attire, wears a long flowing robe with intricate patterns and a headscarf adorned with beads and a large ring. Her expression is one of deep affection as she gazes into the eyes of her son, who is wearing a simple white shirt and shorts. The boy's curious gaze is fixed on something in the distance, perhaps a game or a friend. The image offers a glimpse into the daily life of the Somali people during this era, showcasing their unique cultural traditions and the close bond between family members. The photograph's composition and lighting create a sense of intimacy and warmth, inviting the viewer to connect with the subjects and imagine their story. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the universal language of love and the enduring bond between a mother and her child, transcending time and place.
