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
Preparing Vegetables, Japan, Circa 1880s" is an evocative and intriguing photograph that offers a glimpse into the daily life of rural Japan during the late 19th century. The image captures a moment of quiet intensity as a woman, dressed in traditional Japanese clothing, carefully prepares vegetables for cooking. The photograph is believed to have been taken around the 1880s, a time when Japan was undergoing significant modernization and cultural change. Yet, in this image, we see the enduring traditions of Japanese rural life, with the woman's simple attire and the traditional wooden kitchen utensils she uses to chop and slice the vegetables. The scene is set in a rustic, open-air kitchen, with the sun casting a warm, golden light over the vegetables and the woman's work area. The vegetables themselves are a vibrant array of colors and textures, from the deep green of the cabbage to the bright red of the radishes, and the earthy tones of the carrots and turnips. The woman's expression is focused and determined, as she expertly wields her knife to slice the vegetables into uniform pieces. Her posture is poised and confident, suggesting that she has spent many hours honing her skills in the kitchen. The serene expression on her face speaks to the deep connection that the Japanese people have with their food and the importance of preparing it with care and attention. This photograph is a beautiful and poignant reminder of the rich cultural traditions that continue to shape Japanese cuisine and daily life. It invites us to appreciate the simple pleasures of cooking and the importance of connecting with the natural world through the food we prepare and consume.
