17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. 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 photo print, titled "Spahis of Algeria at Furnes, 1914-15" captures a powerful moment in history during World War I. Taken by an anonymous Belgian photographer in the early 20th century, this image showcases North African troops on horseback parading through the streets of Furnes (Veurne), Belgium. The scene is filled with a sense of awe as the spahis, Algerian soldiers known for their exceptional horsemanship skills, ride proudly amidst a bustling crowd. The contrast between their traditional attire and the European architecture creates a striking visual juxtaposition that symbolizes the convergence of cultures during wartime. As these brave cavalrymen navigate through the streets, their presence exudes strength and determination. They represent not only their homeland but also serve as a reminder of the diverse forces united against a common enemy. Preserved within a private collection and measuring 12.7x17.8 cm, this historic photograph allows us to glimpse into an era defined by conflict and resilience. It serves as both a testament to those who fought valiantly during World War I and an homage to the enduring spirit of camaraderie among nations. Through this evocative image captured by an unknown Belgian photographer over a century ago, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the courage displayed by these Algerian spahis amidst unfamiliar surroundings - forever immortalized within this remarkable piece of art from Fine Art Finder's collection at www. bridgeman
