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 print titled "HREC2A-00020" takes us back to the 1800s, showcasing a picturesque winter scene of skating on a frozen pond. Hand-colored and created from a woodcut illustration, this vintage artwork beautifully captures the essence of rural life in America during that era. In this idyllic countryside setting, we see people of all ages enjoying the simple pleasures of winter. A group consisting of men, women, and children gracefully glide across the icy surface with their skates, while others watch from afar. The atmosphere is filled with joy and excitement as families come together to embrace leisure time in nature's playground. Amidst the frosty landscape lies an enchanting village or town where houses peek through snow-covered trees. Couples engage in courtship rituals while skating hand-in-hand, creating an air of romance amidst the chilly weather. Laughter fills the air as children playfully chase each other around on their skates. The charm and nostalgia emanating from this historic image transport us back to a simpler time when winters were embraced for their beauty and offered opportunities for outdoor recreation. It serves as a reminder that even in colder climates like North America during holidays such as Christmas, communities found ways to celebrate together through sports and shared experiences. This remarkable piece of art allows us to appreciate both our rich history and the timeless joys found within wintertime traditions.
