Antebellum Deep South Italianate Plantation Sugar Plantation Plantation House
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 photograph transports us back to Belle Grove, Louisiana in the year 1938. The image showcases the grandeur of a bygone era, capturing the essence of this magnificent plantation mansion with remarkable detail. Belle Grove stands as a testament to architectural brilliance, blending Greek Revival and Italianate styles seamlessly. Its elaborate design is truly awe-inspiring, making it one of the largest mansions ever constructed in the South during its completion in 1857. This splendid residence was originally built for John Andrews and has since become an iconic symbol of opulence and sophistication. Located near White Castle in Iberville Parish, Belle Grove exudes an air of elegance that is synonymous with antebellum plantations. It served as a sugar plantation during its heyday, contributing to Louisiana's rich history and economy. Frances Benjamin Johnston skillfully captures both the beauty and decay within this photograph. The ruins add a touch of melancholy to an otherwise majestic scene, reminding us that time spares no one or anything from its relentless passage. As we gaze upon this stunning print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported into another era - where grand architecture stood tall amidst vast sugarcane fields. It serves as a poignant reminder of America's past while also celebrating the enduring legacy left behind by these magnificent structures.
