23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 showcases the imposing figure of Charles Mangin, a prominent military leader during the early 20th century. Standing tall with an air of authority, Mangin's three-quarter length portrait captures his commanding presence. His distinguished moustache adds to his formidable appearance, while his uniform and kepi symbolize his dedication to serving in the French army. Adorned with numerous medals and decorations, it is evident that Mangin was a highly decorated soldier who had earned recognition for his bravery and leadership skills. Known as "the Butcher" this moniker hints at the controversial nature of his military tactics. Published in 1910 in La Force Noire, this portrait gained notoriety as Mangin called for the utilization of French colonial forces in European wars. This photograph serves as a reminder of Mangin's influential role during World War I (WWI) and highlights his involvement in colonial conquests across Sudan, North Africa, Mali, Senegal, among others. Preserved within a private collection today, this historic image offers us a glimpse into the life of an esteemed general who played a significant part in shaping history. As we gaze upon this striking portrayal of Charles Mangin, we are reminded of both the triumphs and controversies that marked his career as he navigated through one of humanity's most tumultuous periods - WWI.
