At the temple Thien Hau or Temple of the Celestial Lady in Saigon, dedicated to Thiên Hậu, the patron goddess of navigators. Founded in 1835 by Chinese from Canton, it is said to be the largest Chinese sanctuary in southern Vietnam.The slow-burningincense creates a solemn, mystical atmosphere, symbolizing the sacred link between the earthly world and the spiritual realm.The fervent prayers accompanying this act of incenseoffering express a sincere desire for communion with the deities, weaving an intimate bond between believers and the divine.The image of wisps of fragrant smoke rising towards the sky captures the quintessence of this spirituality in motion.The aspirations and hopes of the faithful are carried by these spirals of incense, symbolizing the transcendence of earthly limits to touch the divine. The addition of red candles to this ambience reinforces the dimension of prayer and devotion.Their warm light creates a peaceful, comforting atmosphere, inviting the faithful to reflect and meditate in the soft glow of their light.The play of light and shadow produced by these candles accentuates themystical atmosphere of the temple, offering a space conducive to contemplationand spiritual connection.
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.
