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 photograph captures a Malay group from the late 19th century, circa 1880s. The image showcases a diverse gathering of individuals, all dressed in traditional Malay attire, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of the region. The men are dressed in sarongs, worn around the waist, and baju melayu, a long-sleeved shirt, while the women don elegant kebayas, a traditional blouse, and batik skirts. The group is gathered in a picturesque outdoor setting, likely a village or community area. The lush greenery and vibrant colors of the surroundings provide a stunning backdrop to the image. The Malay people were known for their strong connection to nature, and this photograph beautifully encapsulates that bond. The Malay Archipelago, comprised of over 25,000 islands, was a melting pot of diverse cultures and traditions. The Malay people were the dominant ethnic group, and their influence extended far beyond the islands. This photograph offers a glimpse into their daily life during a time of significant cultural and historical change. The Malay people were known for their skilled craftsmanship, particularly in the production of textiles, which are prominently displayed in this photograph. The intricate batik designs on the women's skirts and the men's sarongs are a testament to their artistic prowess. This photograph is a valuable historical record of a time long past, offering insights into the lives of the Malay people during the late 19th century. It serves as a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and diversity that continues to shape the Malay Archipelago and the wider region today.
