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.

The Burning of Catania - A Glimpse into the Ravages of War
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the aftermath of the conquest and subsequent burning of Catania by the Bern Regiment in 1849. Painted by Carl Wilhelm Goetzloff, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 43.5x57 cm and is currently housed at Kunstmuseum in Bern, Switzerland. The scene depicted is one of chaos and destruction. Flames engulf buildings, billowing smoke fills the air, while wounded soldiers and injured horses lie scattered amidst the ruins. The artist's attention to detail brings forth a sense of realism that evokes both awe and horror. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this painting serves as a poignant reminder of the cost of war. It speaks to themes such as victory, sacrifice, and Italian unification - an era marked by political upheaval and territorial disputes. Amidst this devastation lies hope for healing. The presence of medical personnel attending to wounded soldiers highlights humanity's resilience even in times of great turmoil. This juxtaposition between destruction and care invites contemplation on the fragility yet indomitable spirit inherent within us all. As we gaze upon this powerful image captured by Bridgeman Images from Fine Art Finder, let us reflect upon our shared history and strive towards creating a world where peace prevails over conflict – where scenes like "The Burning of Catania" remain mere relics rather than recurring realities.
