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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the city of Kars in northeast Turkey, as it appeared in 1893. The artist, J Godfrey, skillfully captures the essence of this historic location that witnessed a significant battle during the Crimean War. Kars became a battleground between Russian forces led by General Muraviev and Turkish troops under British General WF Williams in 1856. The image showcases the remarkable landscape surrounding Kars, with mountains towering majestically in the background. Perched atop a hill, the city's buildings stand proudly against the backdrop of nature's grandeur. This engraving is part of James Taylor's renowned work "The Age We Live In: A History of the Nineteenth Century" published by William Mackenzie in London. As we delve into this monochrome masterpiece, we are transported to an era long gone but not forgotten – the 19th century. It serves as a reminder of how geography and history intertwine to shape nations and their destinies. The print collector has preserved this exquisite piece for generations to come. Let us appreciate J Godfrey's artistic talent as he immortalizes Kars through his meticulous engravings. This print allows us to reflect upon both its natural beauty and its significance within historical events like the Crimean War.
