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.

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 a significant moment in history - the sinking of a German cruiser off the coast of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania during World War I. The artist, Realistic Travels Publishers, skillfully portrays the aftermath of this naval battle with remarkable detail. The image suggests that the sunken warship could possibly be the renowned light cruiser Konigsberg, which was famously sunk by British forces in the Battle of Rufiji Delta on July 11th, 1915. A group of men can be seen standing along the seashore, attentively watching as this dramatic event unfolds before their eyes. As we delve into this historical photograph, it becomes evident that it represents more than just a military engagement. It symbolizes the clash between nations - Germany and Britain - and highlights how East Africa became an unexpected theater for warfare during World War I. The monochrome composition adds to its timeless appeal while emphasizing the gravity of war. This stereoscopic card detail transports us back to a time when naval warfare played a crucial role in shaping world events. Realistic Travels Publishers has masterfully captured not only an important moment in history but also evokes emotions related to sacrifice, conflict, and resilience. Through this artwork's intricate details and powerful imagery, we are reminded of both our shared humanity and our capacity for destruction during times of war.
