Cnetury Gondolas Sighs Slides Venice
31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 coloured lantern slide depicts the iconic Bridge of Sighs in Venice, Italy, dating back to the late 1890s. The Bridge of Sighs, a popular tourist attraction and a symbol of Venice's rich history, is shown adorned with intricate architectural details and bathed in a warm, inviting glow. The bridge connects the Doge's Palace to the prison cells, earning its name from the sighs of prisoners as they caught their last glimpse of Venice and the beautiful lagoon before being taken to their cells. In the foreground, the tranquil waters of the Rio di Palazzo reflect the vibrant hues of the bridge, while gondolas glide gracefully along the canal, adding to the romantic and enchanting atmosphere of this iconic Italian city. The intricate details of the gondolas, from their ornate wooden frames to the striped awnings, are beautifully captured in this coloured lantern slide. This slide is part of the Boswell Collection, Box 214, Italy Coloured, and is a testament to the enduring allure of Venice and its landmarks. The late 19th century was a time of great artistic and cultural exploration, and this slide offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of wonder and discovery. The Bridge of Sighs remains an enduring symbol of Venice's rich history and continues to captivate visitors from around the world.
