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 powerful historical print captures a significant moment in the history of Libya - the Italians bombing an Arab encampment in Tripolitania. The event took place in October 1911, during a time when Italy was making its mark on Africa by expanding its territory.
After the Tripolitan War, the Turks ceded control of the country to the Italians, who then incorporated it into Libya. This photograph showcases Italian aircraft carrying out airstrikes on the Arab encampment in Tripoli, leaving a lasting impact on the region.
The image is not just a snapshot of a single event but represents larger themes of colonization and imperialism that were prevalent during this period. It serves as a reminder of the complex history and power dynamics at play in North Africa at that time.
Through this print from Mary Evans Prints Online, viewers are transported back to a pivotal moment in Libyan history. It prompts reflection on how past events continue to shape our world today and highlights the importance of understanding historical context when examining current global issues.
