Iraq Loco Locomotive Past Pith Shorts
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 three British soldiers, dressed in full military regalia of the 1920s, walk past a stationary train in Iraq. The soldiers, with their helmets on their heads and pith helmets slung over their shoulders, exude a sense of determination and focus as they pass by the locomotive. The train, a relic of the colonial era, sits idle with its engine and carriages parked on the tracks, a testament to the transportation infrastructure that once connected the Middle East to the rest of the world. The soldiers' shorts and boots, along with the dusty terrain and parched vegetation in the background, further emphasize the harsh desert conditions that characterized this region during that era. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the history of British military presence in Iraq during the early 20th century. With the soldiers' stern expressions and the train's silent presence, this photograph encapsulates the tension and intrigue of a bygone era.
