Caribbean Carribean Relic Souvenir
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 a piece of history in the form of sugar cane inscribed 'Sugar Cane Barbados 1895'. The cane, brought from the West Indies by Private R W Cattely of 1st Battalion The Connaught Rangers, serves as a tangible reminder of the British presence in the Caribbean during the 18th and 19th centuries.
The Barbados garrison, where this cane originated, was one of the largest in the region, reflecting Britain's strategic military interests in maintaining control over its colonies. British troops were stationed on the island until their withdrawal in 1905.
As a relic from this era, the sugar cane symbolizes not only a food supply but also a connection to a bygone time when colonial powers exerted influence over distant lands. It stands as a souvenir of an imperial past that continues to shape our world today.
Through this image, we are invited to reflect on themes of power dynamics, exploitation, and cultural exchange that defined colonial relationships between Europe and its overseas territories. This seemingly simple object carries with it layers of historical significance that prompt us to consider our place within this complex narrative.
