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 print captures the intense atmosphere of "The Crisis in China, Views in Peking and Neighbourhood". Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image offers a glimpse into a tumultuous period in Chinese history. The photograph showcases various significant locations such as royal homes, state occasions, the entrance to allies, and the Temple of Heaven. Intriguingly, it also depicts the presence of the British fleet stationed near Peking. The destruction caused by war is evident through ruins scattered across the landscape. Notably, we can observe both architectural marvels like places of worship alongside their devastated counterparts. The image alludes to historical events such as the attack on Emperor's British Legation and the infamous burning of Summer Palace during that time. These incidents marked a critical turning point for China. With its focus on architecture and places of worship amidst ruins along Peiho River's neighborhood, this photograph provides valuable insight into Beijing's past. It serves as a reminder not only of China's rich cultural heritage but also its turbulent history. Preserved within private collections until now, this piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to delve deeper into Asia's complex narrative while appreciating early photography techniques employed by talented photographers from England during that era.
