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 hauntingly beautiful and poignant image captures the skeletal remains of a female pygmy from the Akka Tribe, also known as the Negrillo people, native to the Monnattu region of central Africa. The skeleton, presented by Dr. Emin Pasha in 1887, was documented by the renowned British photographer J. Benjamin Stone in 1907. The delicate bones, arranged with a sense of dignity and respect, serve as a poignant reminder of the rich cultural heritage and history of the indigenous peoples of Africa. Pygmies, a diverse group of people with distinct physical characteristics, have long been a subject of fascination and study in the scientific community. Homo sapiens sapiens, or modern humans, are believed to have originated in Africa around 300,000 years ago, and the Pygmies are considered to be among the oldest surviving populations of our species. The Pygmies are also part of the larger Hominini family, which includes humans and our closest living relatives, the chimpanzees. Despite their ancient lineage, the Pygmies have faced numerous challenges throughout history, including colonization, displacement, and discrimination. This skeleton serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength of the Pygmy people, who continue to thrive and preserve their unique cultural traditions in the face of adversity. The image also highlights the importance of respecting and preserving the remains of indigenous peoples, both as a means of honoring their history and as a source of valuable scientific information about our shared human ancestry.
