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 by Kim Kyung-Hoon, we witness the thrilling chase between a hawk and a pigeon during a falconry demonstration held by the Suwa falconry preservation society as part of New Year celebrations in Tokyo. The image captures the intensity and agility of both birds, frozen in time against a backdrop of nature's beauty. Falconry in Japan has an astonishing history that spans over 1,600 years, with its roots deeply embedded within the imperial family. As guardians of this ancient art form, the Suwa falconry preservation society showcases their expertise through such mesmerizing demonstrations. The photograph highlights intricate details: from every feather on the hawk's majestic wings to the focused determination in its eyes. We can almost feel the wind rushing past as these two magnificent creatures engage in their age-old dance. With no human presence visible, it is solely nature taking center stage here. The composition allows us to appreciate not only the sheer power and grace displayed by these avian predators but also offers an opportunity for reflection on our connection with wildlife and our shared planet. Kim Kyung-Hoon's masterful use of depth-of-field adds further dimension to this visual narrative, emphasizing both proximity and distance simultaneously. This stunning snapshot serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling cityscapes like Tokyo, moments of natural wonder are never far away if we take notice.
