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 evocative sketch by Frank Vizetelly captures a pivotal moment in American history: the Review of the Federal Troops by President Abraham Lincoln and General Winfield Scott on Dec. 21, 1861, just over a year into the Civil War. The conflict, which began on April 12, 1861, had already claimed countless lives and irrevocably altered the nation's course. In this scene, the Garibaldi Guard, a company of Italian immigrants who had volunteered for the Union Army, file past their commanders. Their distinctive zouave uniforms, inspired by the French North African troops of the same name, made them a striking sight on the battlefield. Lincoln and Scott, both clad in heavy coats against the winter chill, observe the soldiers with a mixture of pride and concern. The Review of the Troops was an opportunity for the president and the general to assess the readiness of their forces as they prepared for the challenges ahead. The event took place at Fort Ethan Allen in Washington, D.C., and was attended by thousands of spectators, including members of Congress and diplomats from foreign embassies. This historical image, with its meticulous attention to detail and poignant sense of the moment, offers a glimpse into the early days of the Civil War and the determination of the men and leaders who fought to preserve the Union. Frank Vizetelly's skillful rendering of the scene underscores the importance of this period in American history and the sacrifices made by those who lived through it.
