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 vintage photograph, hailing from the late 19th century, transports us back in time to the bustling River Bathing Ghat in Haridwar, India. The image, captured through the lens of an early photographic process such as albumen or collodion, showcases the grandeur and cultural significance of this ancient city located in the northern part of the country. The ghat, a series of steps leading down to the sacred River Ganges, is teeming with activity. Men and women, dressed in ethnic attire, are seen engaged in various occupations. Some are washing clothes, while others are busy trading goods or plying their skills as artisans. The hustle and bustle of commerce and daily life are interspersed with moments of devotion and relaxation, as people take a dip in the holy waters. The architectural backdrop of the photograph is equally intriguing, with the old buildings and structures adding to the charm of the scene. The urban landscape, a blend of the traditional and the modern, is a testament to the rich history and diverse culture of Haridwar. The photograph, taken during the 1860s to the 1890s, offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this vibrant town. The image, with its timeless appeal, continues to resonate with us, inviting us to explore the stories and traditions that unfolded on the banks of the River Ganges in Haridwar.
