Scanning the horizon

March 18, 2017 – Masai Mara, Kenya

Lion (Panthera leo) Looking together, in the same direction.The lion population has declined massively in recent years.The causes include human-animal conflict, hunting, poaching and habitat loss. The “Predator Compensation Fund” program of theBig LifeFoundation (BLF) is committed to protecting the lions of the Amboseli-Tsavo ecosystem in Kenya.This program aims to help the Maasai people who have settled there, by offering them compensation when it is proven that their livestock have been decimated by lions or other carnivores. TheBig LifeFoundation also encourages young warriors to take part in the Maasai Olympic Games. These offer an alternative to traditional lion hunting, while giving them a chance to prove their mettle. Instead of hunting lions, young men can demonstrate their stamina and dexterity at the Maasai Olympic Games.

Floating Frame

The floating frame, sleek and modern, is one of the preferred framing choices for contemporary art galleries and museums.

The floating frame perfectly enhances your photographic print.

The spacing between the frame and the image creates a floating effect and highlights the image, making it an ideal art frame to maximize the depth and elegance of the artworks in our collection.

The print is mounted on a 2 mm Dibond panel and placed in the frame.

The depth of the floating frame is 4 cm, and the gap between the photograph and the inner edges of the frame is 0.8 cm for black or white finishes and 1 cm for wood finishes (Oak, Wenge, etc.). This arrangement creates a visually pleasing “floating” effect. Finally, a hanging system is attached to the back of the frame for a quick, easy, and secure installation.

Frame with mat

This classic framing combines timeless elegance and sophistication, offering a sublime presentation for your most precious artworks and photographs. A wooden or aluminum frame, chosen for its simplicity and nobility, adds a touch of authenticity and refinement to your piece.

The mat, an essential element of this ensemble, enhances the artwork by creating a visual space around it. It highlights the details and nuances while adding extra depth. Carefully selected, it perfectly complements the artwork without overwhelming it, allowing every detail to stand out.

Finally, the museum glass, of exceptional quality, provides optimal protection against harmful elements such as dust, humidity, and UV rays. With its unmatched clarity and anti-reflective properties, it ensures perfect visibility from every angle, allowing your artwork to shine without distractions.

This harmonious ensemble transforms each piece into a masterpiece, ready to be admired and preserved for generations to come. Investing in a classic frame means choosing to enhance and protect what you cherish with unparalleled distinction.
