Hudson Point

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 print, titled "View on the Hudson - West Point," transports us back in time to the late 19th century, offering a breathtaking glimpse into the past. The serene Hudson River, a vital waterway that has shaped the history of America, is the star of this enchanting scene. Steamboats and sailboats gracefully navigate the river, their sails billowing in the gentle breeze, while the puffs of smoke from the steamers add a touch of industry and progress. In the foreground, people go about their daily lives along the shoreline. Men and women, dressed in Victorian attire, engage in various activities - some are fishing, while others are picnicking or simply enjoying the picturesque view. Children play near the water's edge, their laughter carried on the wind. The true gem of this scene, however, is the majestic West Point in the background. Perched atop a strategic hill, the United States Military Academy stands proudly, its white buildings and red-roofed barracks contrasting sharply against the lush greenery. Founded in 1802, West Point has been a symbol of military strength and academic excellence for over a century. This charming print, with its intricate details and vibrant colors, invites us to imagine a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of nature and community were cherished. The enduring beauty of the Hudson River and the historic significance of West Point continue to captivate us, making this print a timeless treasure.
