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.

All That Was Left of Them, 2nd Boer War, 1899
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant and powerful depiction of the aftermath of the Battle of Magersfontein during the Second Boer War. Painted by Richard Caton Woodville II, this artwork captures the devastating consequences of war on both sides. In this somber scene, we see members of The Black Watch regiment, known as Highlanders from Scotland, who have survived the battle but are left to mourn their fallen comrades. The artist skillfully portrays their grief-stricken faces and weary bodies amidst a desolate battlefield strewn with casualties. The painting serves as a reminder of the brutality and futility of war. It symbolizes not only the defeat suffered by General Methuen's British forces but also reflects upon broader themes such as colonialism and imperialism that characterized this period in history. Woodville's use of color adds depth to the composition while emphasizing the grim reality faced by these soldiers. The vibrant red uniforms against a muted background accentuate their vulnerability in contrast to their surroundings. This artwork stands as a testament to human resilience in times of adversity and invites viewers to contemplate the cost and consequences associated with armed conflicts. "All That Was Left Of Them" serves as an enduring tribute to those who sacrificed their lives for country and empire during one of history's most significant conflicts - The Second Boer War.
