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.

Jaffa, 1890 - A Glimpse into the Ancient Port City's Rich History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to Jaffa in 1890, a city steeped in ancient history and strategic significance. With its broad view of the Mediterranean Sea, Jaffa served as a crucial military stronghold throughout the ages. The image captures the essence of this coastal gem with its charming coastline and distant horizon. In the background, we see people going about their day against the backdrop of this historic location. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of timelessness to the scene. Jaffa's historical importance is highlighted by its conquests during significant events such as the First Crusade in June 1099 when it fell under Christian control. However, it was later reclaimed by Saladin in 1187 before ultimately surrendering to King Richard the Lionheart on September 10th, 1191. This remarkable engraving from "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" by Edmund Ollier offers us a glimpse into Jaffa's past glory. It serves as a reminder of how this ancient city played a pivotal role not only in military campaigns but also in shaping cultural exchanges between East and West. As we gaze upon this intriguing piece of history frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where kings ruled over vast lands and mighty empires clashed for dominance. This print stands as a testament to Jaffa's enduring legacy and invites us to explore further into its rich tapestry of stories waiting to be discovered.
