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 from 1906 captures a moment in Ain Zeft, Algeria, where locals dressed in traditional costumes are posing alongside two Europeans in front of a workers' house. The contrast between the different cultures and backgrounds is striking, highlighting the complex dynamics of colonialism during that time period.
The group photo showcases the diversity and richness of Arab culture in North Africa, with the locals proudly displaying their heritage through their attire. The presence of the Europeans serves as a reminder of the influence and impact of French colonial rule on Algerian society.
The scene exudes a sense of community and tradition, with each individual contributing to the vibrant tapestry of life in Ain Zeft. From the laborers to the villagers, every person plays a vital role in shaping their shared habitat.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported back to a time when customs and traditions were deeply rooted in everyday life. It serves as a poignant reminder of our interconnectedness as human beings, regardless of our cultural differences.
This photograph is not just an image frozen in time; it is a window into history that allows us to reflect on how far we have come while honoring those who came before us.
