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
In this print captured by Morteza Nikoubazl, we are transported to Tehran in November 2007, where a fortune-teller engages in a soothsaying session with a curious customer. As the fortune-teller explains the cards laid out before them, we can sense the air of anticipation and intrigue that surrounds this ancient practice. The image offers us a glimpse into the lives of Iranians during this period of growing isolation and economic uncertainty. With worries over their country's position on the global stage and surging prices at home, it is no wonder that many turn to alternative means for guidance and reassurance. The scene itself is filled with symbolism as both parties seek answers within these mystical cards. The fortune-teller's focused expression reveals years of experience and wisdom gained from interpreting these divinatory tools. Meanwhile, the customer leans forward attentively, seeking solace or perhaps even hope amidst uncertain times. Nikoubazl's expert composition allows us to appreciate not only the individuals involved but also provides insight into Iranian culture and its deep-rooted traditions. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of hardship or doubt, people find comfort in age-old practices such as fortune-telling. This powerful photograph encapsulates both personal introspection and societal concerns while highlighting our universal desire for guidance when faced with an unpredictable future.
