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 an 8c William T. Sherman imprint plate block of twelve, dating back to March 21,1893. The top margin plate block features a remarkable display of twelve 8-cent stamps, each bearing the distinctive imprint: "American Bank Note Company". The letter Z Z and plate number 265 add an intriguing touch to this historical artifact. The aged appearance of the print transports us to the bygone era of the late 19th century in America. A bearded gentleman with a commanding presence is depicted as General William Tecumseh Sherman, renowned for his military prowess and authorship. This image captures him amidst a group setting, exuding authority and wisdom. The rich color palette adds depth to this piece of heritage art, with ink lilac dominating the scene.

This photograph holds immense value not only as a collector's item but also as a testament to American history. It symbolizes communication and education through its association with postage stamps and scientific institutions like the Smithsonian Institution and National Postal Museum. Let us cherish this glimpse into our nation's past – where men like General Sherman played vital roles in shaping our present-day society.
