23"x19" (58x48cm) 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
This hand-colored woodcut print showcases the breathtaking beauty of the Mississippi River and the bustling city of Minneapolis in the 1870s. The image takes us back to a time when Minneapolis was still a village known as St. Anthony, nestled along the banks of this majestic river in Minnesota. The illustration captures a moment in history when St. Anthony's Falls, an impressive waterfall on the Mississippi River, served as both a natural wonder and an essential source of power for early industries. The falls stand tall and powerful amidst the picturesque landscape, symbolizing both nature's grandeur and mankind's industrious spirit. As we gaze at this vintage artwork, we are transported to a bygone era filled with American heritage and tradition. It reminds us of our nation's rich history during the 19th century, particularly in North America's midwestern region. The print not only serves as a visual delight but also offers insight into how art played an important role in documenting historical landmarks like these falls. It allows us to appreciate how artists captured moments that would otherwise be lost to time. Let this enchanting depiction transport you back to an era where nature met industry, where waterfalls roared alongside growing cities – all preserved within this remarkable piece of art from North Wind Picture Archives.
