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.

The Czars Visit to Balmoral, 1896 - A Glimpse into Royal Connections and Tragic Fate
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a momentous occasion in history - the visit of Czar Nicholas II of Russia and his wife, Tsarina Alexandra, to Balmoral Castle in 1896. The image showcases Queen Victoria, a revered monarch herself, standing alongside her granddaughter Princess Alexandra who was married to the Russian ruler. In this poignant scene, we witness the harmonious union between two powerful families. Little did they know that their destinies would be forever altered by tragedy. In 1918, amidst political turmoil and revolution in Russia, the Czar and Czarina along with their children were ruthlessly assassinated. The photograph not only portrays these prominent figures but also provides glimpses into Victorian fashion and Scottish culture. Queen Victoria is elegantly dressed in her signature attire while Princess Alexandra dons a stylish hat. The backdrop of Balmoral Castle adds an air of grandeur to the composition. A pony-drawn trap stands at the entrance gate where servants await their royal guests' arrival. This snapshot transports us back to a time when horse-drawn vehicles were still prevalent modes of transportation. As we reflect upon this historical image captured by John Brown and W&D Downey, it serves as a reminder of both the interconnectedness between nations through marriage alliances and how swiftly fate can change for even those born into royalty.
