Destination write-up
Here’s the write-up that features on your print.
Makalu, the fifth highest mountain in the world, rises to an astonishing height of 8,485 meters. This majestic peak, located in the Mahalangur range of the Himalayas, is renowned for its striking, pyramid-like silhouette, which stands as a beacon of natural grandeur. The name Makalu, derived from the Sanskrit word “Maha Kala” meaning “Great Black,” reflects the mountain's dark rock faces and imposing presence.
The sheer beauty of Makalu lies not only in its towering height but also in its remote and pristine environment. Surrounded by deep valleys, glacial basins, and rugged terrain, the landscape here is a breathtaking mosaic of natural wonders. The mountain's formidable south-east and north-west ridges create contrasts of shadow and light, highlighting its awe-inspiring contours.
Climbers are drawn to Makalu for its challenging ascent, which requires both skill and determination. Makalu is known for its technical climbing routes, which offer an exhilarating mix of steep ice and rock climbing.
Print size & quality
Every piece is printed on thick, 175gsm fine-art matte paper with archival inks — so the colours stay rich, deep and true for years, with no fading and no fuss. Before it heads your way, it's wrapped in soft tissue to keep it scratch-free and sent out in a sturdy kraft tube or a robust triangular kraft box (never plastic).
Available sizes
Framing options
Fancy it ready to hang? Add a solid pine frame — sturdy, handsome and built to last. Take your pick from black, natural wood, or white. Each one is 20–25mm deep and 10–14mm wide: the sweet spot between strength and understated good looks.
We finish every frame with shatterproof, crystal-clear plexiglass to keep your print pristine — and it arrives already framed, so it goes straight from the box to your wall with no faff.
Framing is available for these sizes: A4, A3, A2, A1, 8x10, 11x14, 12x16, 12x18, 16x20, 18x24, 20x28, 24x32, 24x36 and 28x40.
