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
Andafiavaratra Palace, nestled in the heart of Antananarivo, Madagascar's capital city, stands proudly in this early 20th century photograph. The palace, serving as the official residence of the prime minister, is a striking example of Malagasy architectural fusion. Its design reflects a harmonious blend of traditional Malagasy and European influences, with its red-tiled roof and intricately carved wooden balconies. The view captures the serene beauty of the palace, set against a backdrop of lush, verdant trees and the bustling cityscape of Antananarivo. The city, known as "Tananarive" during this period, is a vibrant mix of wood and stone buildings, with trunks of trees peeking out from between them. The city's unique charm is further accentuated by the presence of the palace, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Madagascar. This photograph, taken circa 1910, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of colonial influence and Malagasy resilience. The image of the palace, with its grandeur and tranquility, stands as a symbol of the enduring spirit of Antananarivo and Madagascar as a whole. The trees, with their strong, sturdy trunks, serve as a reminder of the strength and resilience of the Malagasy people, who have weathered the test of time and continue to thrive in the face of adversity.
