17"x15" (43x38cm) 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
In this print titled "Mali Dogon Tribe: A Young Girl Carrying Heavy Item on Her Head" captured by Bernard Morales in the 1990s, we are transported to the heart of Africa. The image showcases a young girl from the Mali Dogon Tribe, gracefully balancing a heavy item atop her head. As we gaze upon this powerful scene, it becomes evident that this photograph is more than just a documentation of physical strength; it encapsulates the essence of culture and tradition. Through her determined expression and unwavering posture, we witness the resilience embedded within her being. The weight she carries symbolizes not only the burden placed upon her shoulders but also represents centuries-old customs passed down through generations. This poignant portrayal sheds light on the rich tapestry of ethnic traditions that have shaped communities like the Mali Dogon Tribe for centuries. Yet amidst our admiration for her strength, there is an undeniable tinge of sadness in her eyes. It serves as a reminder that while these customs may be beautiful and deeply rooted in their heritage, they can also impose hardships on those who bear them. Morales' masterful composition captures both beauty and complexity simultaneously - inviting us to reflect upon our own cultural identities and appreciate how different expressions of strength manifest across diverse societies worldwide.
