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 by Bruno Barbier/Robert Harding transports us to the vibrant basket-work market in Axoum (Axum), located in the Tigre region of Ethiopia, Africa. The image captures the essence of this bustling outdoor marketplace, where local villagers and townspeople gather to trade their beautifully crafted baskets. The scene is filled with a kaleidoscope of colors as African men and women proudly display their handiwork. Each basket tells a unique story, reflecting the rich cultural heritage of Ethiopia. The intricate patterns and designs showcase the skillful craftsmanship passed down through generations. In this snapshot, we witness the spirit of entrepreneurship as market vendors engage with potential customers. These small business owners play an integral role in sustaining their community's economy while preserving traditional art forms. The photograph also offers a glimpse into everyday life in Axum - a city location that exudes authenticity and charm. As we observe these individuals going about their daily routines, it becomes evident that they are not just sellers but proud ambassadors of Ethiopian culture. Bruno Barbier/Robert Harding has masterfully captured this moment, allowing us to travel vicariously to Eastern Africa and experience its unique beauty firsthand. This stunning print serves as a reminder of the diversity found within our global community and inspires us to appreciate both the creativity and resilience displayed by people around the world.
