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 photograph captures the grandeur of Mombasa Memorial Cathedral in Kenya, circa 1902. Standing tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, this architectural marvel showcases the influence of British colonialism during that era. The cathedral's exterior is adorned with intricate details, showcasing its Anglican roots and English design. The dome at the center commands attention, symbolizing strength and spirituality. Surrounding it is a churchyard filled with lush greenery, adding to the serene ambiance of this scenic view. This turn-of-the-century snapshot offers a glimpse into an early period in Kenyan history when colonial powers left their mark on local architecture. Preserved by the Library of Congress, this print allows us to appreciate not only the craftsmanship but also serves as a testament to Kenya's rich cultural heritage. It reminds us of how different nations have influenced one another throughout history. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the fusion between British imperialism and Kenyan traditions. It serves as a reminder that even amidst colonization, beauty can emerge from shared experiences and influences across borders.
