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.

Skaters Embracing Winter Bliss on the Zuider Zee, Dutch Island of Marken in the 1800s
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This hand-colored woodcut print takes us back to a bygone era, where time seemed to stand still amidst frozen landscapes. In this picturesque scene captured from the 1800s, we find ourselves immersed in the joyous atmosphere of a winter Sunday on the Zuider Zee. The enchanting village of Marken comes alive as families and couples gather for a day filled with merriment and romance. Men donning pantaloons and fur hats gracefully glide across the icy surface, showcasing their skillful skating techniques. Women elegantly dressed in traditional attire join them, their aprons swaying gently with each graceful movement. Children excitedly chase one another while laughter fills the air, creating an ambiance reminiscent of simpler times. The historic charm is palpable as villagers embrace their heritage through this beloved pastime. Against a backdrop of snow-covered houses and serene countryside vistas, this illustration transports us to a world where life was slower-paced yet brimming with warmth and camaraderie. It serves as a testament to both Dutch culture and rural life during that period. As we gaze upon this vintage masterpiece, let it remind us of our shared human experiences throughout history – moments when communities came together to celebrate simple pleasures amid nature's icy embrace.
