17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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
This evocative photograph captures the awe-inspiring beauty and historical significance of the Shwedagon Pagoda in late 19th century Burma, now Yangon, Myanmar. Officially named Shwedagon Zedi Daw, the pagoda is also known as the Great Dagon Pagoda and the Golden Pagoda. Dating back over 2,500 years, it is the oldest and most sacred Buddhist pagoda in Myanmar. The Shwedagon Pagoda is a stunning architectural masterpiece, covered in gold leaf and encrusted with precious gems. The central stupa is believed to enshrine eight strands of Buddha's hair and other relics. The pagoda complex is surrounded by numerous temples, pavilions, and monasteries, making it a major pilgrimage site for Buddhists from around the world. This photograph, taken in the 1880s, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Burma during the British colonial era. The image shows the pagoda's grandeur and the bustling activity of the surrounding area, with devotees and visitors making their way through the complex. The traditional dress and customs of the people add to the authenticity of the scene. The Shwedagon Pagoda remains an important symbol of Burmese identity and a must-visit destination for travelers seeking to explore the history, culture, and spirituality of this fascinating country. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the pagoda and the captivating allure of Burma's past.
