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 captures the daily life of locals in Madagascar as they navigate their way across the Manambolo River in Tsingy de Bemaraha. The image showcases a truck, filled with people and goods, making its way through the river's calm waters. The scene is both picturesque and symbolic of the resilience and resourcefulness of the Malagasy people. With no bridge or formal crossing available, they rely on these makeshift ferries to transport themselves and their belongings from one side to another. The vibrant colors of Africa are beautifully depicted in this horizontal composition, highlighting the natural beauty that surrounds them. The lush greenery along the riverbanks adds a touch of serenity to an otherwise bustling moment. Photographer Michael Runkel/Robert Harding has perfectly captured this unique mode of transportation that characterizes rural life in Madagascar. It serves as a reminder that even amidst challenging circumstances, communities find innovative ways to overcome obstacles. This photograph not only invites us into a different world but also sparks curiosity about other remote destinations waiting to be explored. It reminds us that there is so much more beyond our familiar surroundings, encouraging us to embrace adventure and discover new travel destinations off the beaten path.
