Artist`s Tale:
Karelia: Ancient Rock Polished By Glaciers, Not Rivers
Karelia, on Russia`s northwestern border with Finland, sits on some of the oldest exposed rock on Earth — part of the Baltic Shield, a geological formation between 1.5 and 3 billion years old. The region`s granite outcrops have a distinctive smooth, rounded shape locally nicknamed "ram`s foreheads," carved not by water but by the sheer weight of glaciers that once covered all of Northern Europe, grinding and polishing the stone as they moved and then retreated. That glacial history also explains Karelia`s other defining feature: more than 60,000 lakes and 27,000 rivers packed into a relatively small area, filling the hollows the retreating ice left behind. Roughly half the region is dense taiga — pine, spruce, and birch — earning Karelia the nickname "the lungs of Europe." "Feel The Frost" was shot on Karelia`s White Sea coast, where an abandoned house stands as the only sign of past habitation against that stripped-back winter landscape — bare geology, frozen water, and a structure slowly being reclaimed by the cold rather than by decay. It`s part of the same broader Russian North collection as work shot further north on the Kola Peninsula. Every piece in this collection is a limited edition, made to order and personally signed, printed on archival Fujiflex paper or as a Lumachrome TruLife acrylic face-mount, starting at $900. See the sizing guide for help choosing a size for your wall.Print Information:
Alexander Vershinin individually produces limited edition prints to the highest possible standards and prints them on world-leading photographic paper. The
Fujiflex Crystal Archive is an ultra-high-gloss, museum-grade photographic paper, with archival properties spanning over 70 years.
Also, we offer trade-marked printing and mounting technology such as the
Lumachrome Gallery Deluxe, which has archival properties spanning over 120 years.
Both technologies allow you to achieve extremely precise print quality, with the unique opportunity to display sharpness, contrast and color reproduction capabilities.
The concentrated light hits the print, accumulates in the silver crystals, and reflects - creating the impression that a photograph is in 3D format and shining from inside.
А photograph is placed on the metal dibond plate and under Lexan or Perspex—super transparent, non-shattering and antiglare "glass". This kind of acrylic defense is completely colorless and offers the best possible presentation of your print.
It also blocks 98% of UV light and is highly resistant to weather, temperature and humidity changes, resulting in the best possible archival life. To finish the luxury design, we offer exclusive custom wooden
Roma frames that allow you to get the museum quality in your art.
To summarize, if you decide to buy any of our art - unframed print rolled in a hard tube, an acrylic face-mounted print float, or finished framed art - you will receive real collectible, exclusive photography art with the best quality you could find for sale.
