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 to the exhilarating days of the Californian Gold Rush in 1850. The engraving showcases a bustling scene of gold miners hard at work, washing for gold along a river in California's picturesque valley. The image captures the essence of adventure and excitement that characterized this historic era. In this 19th-century illustration, we see men engrossed in their pursuit of wealth, conquering adversity as they tirelessly search for precious nuggets amidst a stunning mountain range backdrop. Their determination is palpable as they engage in outdoor labor under the bright daylight. The woodcut technique used to create this print adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its historical charm. Although there are no people depicted directly, their presence is strongly felt through various human representations engaged in mining activities. This artwork transports us back to a time when dreams were made and fortunes were sought after with unwavering dedication. It serves as a reminder of America's rich history and the spirit of resilience that defined those who ventured westward during one of the most significant events in American history – the Californian Gold Rush
