17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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.

Forced Passage in the Second Pyramid of Ghizeh, Egypt, 1820
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the early 19th century. The renowned Italian explorer and antiquities collector Giovanni Belzoni stands as a pioneer in this image, having become the first person to venture into the enigmatic Pyramid of Khafre at Giza. The photograph captures an extraordinary moment frozen in time - Belzoni's torch illuminating the darkened entrance of this ancient tomb. As he bravely explores further into the depths of history, we are reminded of the immense courage and curiosity that drove explorers like him during this era. The pyramid itself looms majestically behind Belzoni, its grandeur serving as a testament to human ingenuity and architectural brilliance from over four thousand years ago. Its weathered exterior tells tales of countless generations who have come before us. This print transports us to a bygone era when archaeology was still in its infancy, offering a glimpse into an exciting chapter of discovery and exploration. It invites us to ponder upon our own fascination with ancient civilizations and their mysteries hidden within these monumental structures. With vibrant colors meticulously preserved through art media techniques, Agostino Aglio's masterful composition allows us to appreciate not only the historical significance but also the artistic beauty captured within this scene. This remarkable piece serves as a reminder that even after centuries have passed since its creation, it continues to inspire awe and wonderment for all those who lay
