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 hand-colored engraving takes us back in time to the 17th century, when Native American longhouses dotted Manhattan Island. As the first Europeans arrived on this land, they were greeted by a vibrant village that showcased the rich heritage and traditions of the indigenous people. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this historic moment. A sailing ship can be seen anchored near the port, symbolizing the arrival of Dutch colonists who established New Amsterdam in what would later become New York City. The bustling harbor serves as a backdrop to these magnificent longhouses, which were central to Native American life. These dwellings, known for their unique architecture and size, provided shelter for multiple families within one structure. They stood tall and sturdy against the backdrop of Manhattan's skyline, representing both strength and unity among native tribes. As we gaze at this vintage artwork, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in North America's history. It is a reminder of how different cultures coexisted during a period marked by exploration and colonization. This print not only showcases artistry but also serves as a visual documentation of our shared past—a testament to our collective journey through time.
