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 vibrant print captures the bustling market at the entrance to the Shoa Gate, one of six gates that lead into the enchanting walled city of Harar in Ethiopia, Africa. The scene is teeming with activity as people from all walks of life engage in lively trade and shopping. In this outdoor setting, men and women can be seen sitting or walking around, immersed in their daily commerce. The colors are vivid and captivating - a true reflection of African culture and vibrancy. A large group of people gather near a gateway, stepping over piles and heaps of vegetables for sale. The air is filled with the aroma of nourishing food being prepared by local vendors. Amidst this energetic atmosphere, an adult Ethiopian woman sits comfortably on a vege table while engaging in conversation with a male customer who seems interested in buying potatoes from her pile. Nearby shops display various goods for sale, adding to the visual feast presented by this busy marketplace. Photographers Andrew McConnell and Robert Harding have skillfully captured not only the essence but also the soul of Eastern Africa through this stunning image. It serves as a reminder that Harar's market is not just about trading goods; it represents a vital hub where communities come together to connect, share stories, and celebrate their rich cultural heritage.
