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
Old Shetlanders of Havera Isle, captured in this evocative photograph from 1918, offer a glimpse into the lives of the elderly inhabitants of the Shetland Islands off the north coast of Scotland. The couple, dressed in traditional attire, stand outside a quaint, whitewashed cottage adorned with colorful flowers and a red door. The woman, a crone with a wrinkled face and wearing an apron, holds a basket on her arm, suggesting a day of gathering or perhaps a visit to a neighbor. Her companion, a man with a white beard and wearing a hat, looks off into the distance, lost in thought or perhaps admiring the rugged beauty of their isolated home. The Shetland Islands, with their rugged cliffs, rocky shores, and harsh weather, have long been a challenging place to live. Yet, the resilient people who call these islands home have developed a rich culture that has endured for centuries. The traditional attire worn by the couple in this photograph, with its thick woolen garments and colorful aprons, reflects the harsh climate and the islanders' resourcefulness. Havera Isle, one of the smaller islands in the Shetland group, is known for its picturesque landscapes and tight-knit community. The isolation and self-sufficiency required to live on such an island have fostered a strong sense of camaraderie and mutual support among its residents. This photograph, with its poignant depiction of an elderly couple in their traditional attire, serves as a reminder of the unique character and resilience of the Shetlanders and their connection to their land.
