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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back in time to the era of early peoples and their ingenious use of simple tools. The image showcases a handcrafted thong made entirely from animal hide, alongside a primitive knife specifically designed for cutting this tough material. Both artifacts serve as remarkable replicas, shedding light on the resourcefulness and ingenuity of our prehistoric ancestors. The thong, skillfully fashioned from animal hide, exemplifies the mastery these early people possessed in manipulating natural materials to create functional items. Its intricate bindings demonstrate an understanding of basic technology that allowed them to fashion durable and versatile accessories. Accompanying the thong is a rudimentary knife used solely for cutting animal hide. This tool represents an essential component in their daily lives, enabling them to transform raw hides into usable materials for clothing, shelter, or other necessities. As we gaze upon this photograph print by Dorling Kindersley, we are transported back thousands of years ago when survival relied heavily on human adaptability and resourcefulness. It serves as a powerful reminder of our ancient roots and how far humanity has come in terms of technological advancements. While not intended for commercial use, this image offers invaluable insights into our shared history while honoring the craftsmanship and skills developed by early civilizations across the globe.
