Okavango Delta
September 6, 2019 – Botswana, Africa
The waters of theOkavango, 1700 km long, never reach the ocean.The river ends in a vast delta in the Kalahari Desert.This aerial photograph offers a striking view of the Okavango Delta, a natural jewel nestled in the heart of the Kalahari Desert in Botswana.The image captures the immensity and complexity of this unique river system, where streams meander through a mosaic of wetlands, grasslands and sparse forests.The sparkling blue-green waters of the delta spread like veins of living earth, nourishing lush vegetation that contrasts with the more arid expanses of the surrounding Kalahari.The sinuous, fractal shapes of the canals and islets create a naturally artistic composition, where every detail tells the story of an ecosystem in perpetual motion.The scattered trees, some bare and others verdant, add a dimension of mystery and endurance to this captivating scene.The color palette, from deep green to earthy brown, evokes both the richness and fragility of this unique environment.
The different types of frames and finishes available
The print comes with its certificate of authenticity and a Hahnemühle hologram affixed to the back.
The framing is left to your discretion.
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.
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.
