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 captures the grandeur of Cattete Palace, the official residence of the President of Brazil in 1914. The artist, Edgar L Pattison, skillfully portrays this urban mansion located in Rio de Janeiro's Catete neighborhood. Constructed between 1858 and 1867, it served as Brazils presidential palace from 1894 to 1960. The image showcases the architectural beauty of Cattete Palace with its impressive facade and wide avenue leading up to it. The building exterior exudes elegance and power, reflecting the importance of its role as a symbol of Brazilian governance during that time. The photograph is part of a book titled "The Beautiful Rio De Janeiro" by Alured Gray Bell, published in London in 1914. It offers readers a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage associated with this iconic landmark. Cattete Palace holds significant historical significance as it was also where Getulio Vargas tragically took his own life. This event adds an air of mystery and intrigue to an already remarkable structure. Through this print, we are transported back to early twentieth-century Brazil, marveling at both the artistic talent behind capturing such a stunning scene and contemplating the political events that unfolded within these walls.
