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 evocative photograph captures the moment between a Bedouin man and a curious child in the ancient city of Kairouan, Tunisia, North Africa, circa 1920. The Bedouin, a nomadic people of the desert, are dressed in traditional clothing, with the man wearing a white robe and headdress, while the child dons a simple tunic and turban. They stand on a dusty road, surrounded by the adobe buildings of Kairouan, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its stunning mosques and historic architecture. The child reaches out, touching the man's beard in wonder, as the Bedouin smiles warmly at him. This tender interaction between the two represents the rich cultural exchange that has taken place in this region for centuries, as nomadic Bedouin tribes have traded and interacted with the settled populations of North Africa. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when life moved at a slower pace, and the connections between people were forged through simple moments of human interaction.
