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.

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
A serene and breathtaking landscape unfolds before the eyes in this photograph of Egypte's Aswan region and the enchanting Elephantine Island. The arid desertic terrain, characterized by its stark, golden sands and rugged, sun-scorched rocks, contrasts dramatically with the lush, verdant greenery of the palm trees and other vegetation that thrives along the fertile banks of the Nile River. In the foreground, a traditional Egyptian felucca sailboat glides gracefully along the river, its sails billowing gently in the breeze. The boat's silhouette against the backdrop of the setting sun creates a picturesque scene that speaks to the rich history and cultural heritage of this ancient land. Elephantine Island, located at the southernmost point of the Aswan High Dam, has been inhabited since prehistoric times and holds great significance in both Egyptian and Nubian history. The island was once an important center of worship for the god Khnum, the deity of the Nile and creator of humanity, and was home to several temples and shrines dedicated to this revered deity. The island's strategic location at the intersection of the Nile and the First Cataract, a series of rapids and waterfalls that once posed a significant obstacle to navigation, made it an essential trading hub and a melting pot of diverse cultures and civilizations. Today, Elephantine Island is a popular tourist destination, offering visitors a glimpse into the fascinating history and unique geography of this enchanting region of Egypt.
