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 picturesque scene of Bougie, or Bejaia, in Algeria, North Africa, circa 1910. The image offers a general view of the hillside town, with its stunning mansions and other buildings nestled among lush greenery. The hillside setting provides a dramatic backdrop, with the mansions seemingly perched atop the hill, their balconies offering breathtaking views of the landscape below. The trees, likely a mix of olive and citrus groves, add to the idyllic setting, their verdant foliage providing a stark contrast to the whitewashed walls of the mansions. The houses, with their red-tiled roofs and ornate details, exude an air of elegance and sophistication, reflecting the prosperity of the region during this period. Bougie, also known as Bridja or Bugia, was a major port city in the Ottoman Empire and later a French protectorate. Its strategic location on the Mediterranean Sea made it an important center for trade and commerce. The town's rich history is evident in the architectural styles of its buildings, which blend Middle Eastern, European, and North African influences. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when Bougie was a thriving and prosperous town, its hillside mansions and beautiful gardens a testament to its unique cultural heritage.
