FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 engraving titled "Fly-Leaves from the Pocket-Book of a Soldier in Ireland, with a Detachment on the West Coast" takes us back to 19th-century Ireland during the tumultuous Irish Land War. The image, originally published in The Graphic on January 27,1883, offers a glimpse into the life of an English soldier stationed in Ireland. In this scene, we find ourselves amidst a detachment of soldiers patrolling the picturesque West Coast. As they halt for dinner and rest their weary feet, one cannot help but notice the soldier's pocket-book filled with fly-leaves that document his experiences and observations during his time in Ireland. The soldier's attention is momentarily diverted as he catches sight of a young colleen passing by. Her presence adds an air of tranquility to this otherwise military setting. It serves as a reminder that even amidst conflict and duty, life continues its course. The engraving captures not only the soldiers' quarters but also provides insight into their daily routines while stationed far away from home. It hints at moments where they can briefly escape their duties and immerse themselves in nature's beauty along the rugged Clare coastline. As we delve deeper into this historical artwork by Bridgeman Images, it invites us to reflect upon both personal stories hidden within these fly-leaves and broader themes such as land ownership disputes that shaped Irish history during that era.
