FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card.

Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history as Napoleon III embarks on his journey to Algeria. Painted by Alfred Henri Darjou, this oil on canvas artwork showcases the emperor's visit to the North African country on 21st May 1865. The Château de Versailles in France proudly displays this masterpiece. Intriguingly, the painting depicts Napoleon III granting a favor to the Flittas, showcasing his benevolence and authority. Bedouins and Arabs surround him in their traditional attire, adding an authentic touch of orientalism to the scene. A horse-drawn carriage stands nearby amidst the vast desert landscape. The image not only highlights Louis Napoleon Bonaparte's imperial stature but also symbolizes French colonization during the Second Empire era. It serves as a reminder of France's influence and presence in North Africa at that time. This historical photograph is more than just art; it tells a story of power dynamics, cultural exchange, and colonial expansion. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back to that momentous day when Napoleon III made his mark on Algerian soil.
