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.

A Seated Camel Train at the Sweet Waters of Europe, Constantinople, Turkey (1904): A Captivating Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures a group of camels peacefully seated at the Sweet Waters of Europe in Constantinople, now Istanbul, Turkey. The serene scene, taken in 1904, showcases the ancient transportation method that once played a significant role in the region's history. The Sweet Waters of Europe was a popular watering hole for travelers and merchants, located near the historic city walls of Constantinople. This image depicts a camel train, likely carrying goods from the East, taking a much-needed rest before continuing their journey. The camels, with their humps providing a source of sustenance, appear calm and content as they sit in a row, their eyes reflecting the tranquil waters in the foreground. The use of camels as a primary mode of transportation in Europe was not uncommon during this time, especially for long-distance trade routes. The camels' ability to traverse vast desert landscapes and carry heavy loads made them an essential component of the trade network that connected Europe, Asia, and Africa. This historical photograph offers a captivating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when camels were the primary means of transportation across continents and the Sweet Waters of Europe served as a vital rest stop for travelers and merchants alike. The image is a testament to the rich history and cultural exchange that took place in Constantinople, now Istanbul, and the enduring legacy of the camel as a symbol of ancient trade and transportation.
