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
The Cascades of Constantine, Algeria: A Glimpse into the Past This photograph, taken around 1899, offers a picturesque view of The Cascades in Constantine, Algeria. The image, richly colored and steeped in history, transports us back in time to the late 19th century. The Cascades, a series of waterfalls and pools, have long been a source of wonder and inspiration for travelers and artists alike. In this photograph, the cascades are framed by lush greenery and the vibrant blue of the sky, creating a scene of breathtaking beauty. The nostalgic charm of this photograph lies in its ability to capture a moment in history that is now long gone. The image reveals the rich cultural heritage of Algeria during a time when European influence was beginning to shape the region. The Victorian-era fashion of the women in the foreground, dressed in long skirts and parasols, serves as a reminder of the colonial past. The photograph was likely taken using the photochrom process, a popular method for producing colored prints during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The process involved the use of multiple glass plates, each coated with a different color filter, to capture the various colors of the scene. The resulting print, with its rich and vibrant hues, offers a more accurate representation of the original scene than photographs of the time. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back to a time when travel was an adventure, and the world was a more mysterious and exotic place. The Cascades of Constantine remain a popular tourist destination today, but this photograph offers a unique and nostalgic glimpse into their history and the past.
