31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 takes us back to the treacherous seas of the 19th century, where the mighty steamship "Galatea" battles against a raging cyclone in the Indian Ocean. The hand-colored woodcut beautifully captures the intensity and chaos of this maritime disaster. In this vintage illustration, we witness history unfolding as nature's fury clashes with human determination. The stormy waves tower over the struggling vessel, threatening to engulf it entirely. The ship's masts strain under the force of hurricane winds while brave sailors cling desperately to their posts. The image evokes a sense of awe and respect for those who dared to venture into such perilous waters during an era when maritime travel was both a necessity and an adventure. It reminds us of our ancestors' resilience and courage in facing these unpredictable elements. As we gaze upon this piece, we are transported back in time, imagining ourselves aboard that ill-fated voyage. We can almost feel the salt spray on our faces and hear the thundering roar of crashing waves. This artwork serves as a testament to humanity's enduring quest for exploration and discovery amidst nature's most formidable challenges. Let this stunning portrayal serve as a reminder that even in times of adversity, there is beauty to be found – not only in art but also within ourselves – as we navigate life's storms with unwavering strength and determination.
