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 takes us back in time to Cairo, Egypt, during a momentous event - an inundation of the mighty Nile River. The image showcases Elbequier (Azbakiya) Square, with its stunning architecture and bustling cityscape. Created in 1803 by Cornelius Tiebout after Dominique Vivant Denon, this line engraving beautifully captures the essence of this historic moment. As we gaze upon the print, our eyes are drawn to the dramatic sky filled with billowing clouds illuminated by a full moon. The floodwaters of the Nile have transformed Azbakiya Square into a mesmerizing scene where boats navigate through what was once solid ground. This unique perspective allows us to witness how transportation adapted to these extraordinary circumstances. The artist's attention to detail is evident as every element comes together harmoniously - from the intricate engravings on buildings to the subtle play of light and shadow cast upon them. It is truly a testament to their skill and dedication. This artwork belongs to The Granger Collection's Carousel Collection, which celebrates historical moments captured through artistry and craftsmanship. As we admire this piece, let us reflect on how nature's forces can shape our world and inspire awe-inspiring works like this one.
