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 takes us back to the summer of the 1870s in Newport, Rhode Island. The scene depicts a picturesque beach setting where wealthy American families sought respite from their busy lives. In this vintage illustration, we witness the leisurely activities enjoyed by these upper-class vacationers. The Atlantic Ocean stretches out before them, its waves inviting and refreshing. A group of elegantly dressed individuals can be seen swimming gracefully in the crystal-clear water while others relax on the sandy shore, basking in the warm sunlight. The air is filled with laughter and joy as children frolic alongside their parents. A horse-drawn carriage stands nearby, ready to take visitors for a scenic ride along Newport's historic waterfront. A pony cart waits patiently beside it, offering another mode of transportation for those seeking a more intimate exploration of this charming New England town. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are reminded of an era when summer vacations were cherished traditions among America's elite class. This image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects our nation's rich heritage and love affair with seaside recreation. With its vibrant colors and intricate details, this artwork transports us back to an age where life seemed simpler yet exquisitely refined. It serves as a testament to North Wind Picture Archives' commitment to preserving historical moments that continue to inspire awe and fascination today.
