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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1895, showcasing a remarkable scene of Kurdish cavalry. The image is extracted from "The Universal Geography with Illustrations and Maps" division XVI, a publication authored by Elisee Reclus and published by Virtue & Co. Limited in London. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the power and grandeur of these armed soldiers mounted on their majestic horses. Clad in traditional attire, they exude an air of strength and determination as they prepare for battle. Each warrior holds a lance or spear, poised to defend their homeland against any threat that may arise. The photograph transports us to Asia, specifically Kurdistan - a region known for its rich cultural heritage and historical significance. It serves as a reminder of the bravery exhibited by these Kurdish fighters during the 19th century. Through this monochrome engraving, we are reminded of the timeless bond between man and animal as we observe the harmonious relationship between soldier and horse. The horses stand tall with grace while carrying their riders into battle, highlighting their crucial role in warfare throughout history. As we delve into this extraordinary piece captured by Elisee Reclus himself or an unknown creator associated with him, it sparks our curiosity about past civilizations' military strategies while simultaneously appreciating the artistry behind such prints that have been preserved through time by organizations like Heritage Images.
