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
A bustling scene of everyday life in Cairo, Egypt, circa 1908, as captured in this evocative photograph of a grocery store on a busy street. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the vibrant and diverse commercial activity that once thrived in this historic city. The photograph shows a narrow, cobblestone street filled with the sounds, smells, and sights of bustling shops and tradesmen. At the center of the frame, a grocery store stands open for business, its wooden shutters thrown wide to welcome customers. A man, dressed in traditional Egyptian attire, stands behind the counter, carefully selecting and weighing out dates and other goods for a customer. Boys and men mill about the scene, some carrying baskets or bags, others simply observing the bustling activity. The storefront is adorned with Arabic script, adding to the exotic allure of the scene. The store's wares are displayed on shelves and in baskets, including an array of colorful fruits, vegetables, and spices. The warm, golden light filtering through the open doorway casts a warm glow over the scene, adding to the sense of warmth and hospitality. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, capturing the energy and vitality of a bustling Egyptian marketplace. It is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and vibrant commercial traditions that have long defined the cities of the Middle East.
