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
This print captures a moment in history when Edward VIII, then known as the Prince of Wales, embarked on a journey through Nepal atop an elegant elephant. Dressed in traditional colonial attire complete with a pith helmet, Edward exudes regal charm and imperial authority as he traverses the lush landscapes of Nepal.
The image not only showcases the grandeur and opulence associated with British royalty but also serves as a stark reminder of the era's imperialism and colonialism. It is a snapshot of a bygone time when European powers sought to expand their influence and control over distant lands.
Edward VIII's visit to Nepal in 1894 was undoubtedly significant, marking an important chapter in both British and Nepalese history. The photograph captures the essence of this historical event, offering viewers a glimpse into the past and shedding light on the complexities of empire-building during that period.
As we reflect on this image from Mary Evans Picture Library, we are reminded of the power dynamics at play during Edward VIII's reign and how they continue to shape our understanding of global events and scenes from centuries past.
