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 mesmerizing sight of spinning prayer wheels at Xiahe Monastery in Gansu, China. The vibrant colors and intricate details of these ornate wheels are a testament to the rich cultural heritage found in this part of Asia. As people walk and stand outside the monastery, they engage in a spiritual practice by spinning these prayer wheels. The motion captured in this image reflects the constant movement and faith that permeates through Chinese spirituality. It is a beautiful representation of how religion intertwines with everyday life in this region. The long exposure technique used by photographer Rod Porteous/Robert Harding adds an ethereal quality to the scene, emphasizing the spiritual significance behind each spin. With its low angle view, we get a unique perspective on one person engaging with a prayer wheel, their blurred motion symbolizing devotion and dedication. This photograph encapsulates both the physical act of spinning as well as the deeper spiritual connection it represents. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to Xiahe's serene landscape where time seems to slow down amidst colorful surroundings. It serves as a reminder that travel can be more than just visiting landmarks; it can also offer us glimpses into different cultures' religious practices and provide moments for introspection and reflection on our own spirituality.
