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 image, titled "Tyre: The Harbour, with Ships" and dated 1553, offers a glimpse into the rich maritime history of Tyre, Lebanon. The photograph, which is part of the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, transports us back in time to an era when Tyre was a thriving Phoenician port city. Tyre, located on the Mediterranean coast of present-day Lebanon, was renowned for its strategic location and bustling trade activities. The city was a significant player in the ancient world, with its trading networks stretching as far as Cyprus, Greece, and even the Phoenician colonies in North Africa and Spain. In this photograph, we see the natural harbor of Tyre, sheltered by a curved bay and dotted with several ships. The ships, with their sails fully hoisted, are likely engaged in the bustling trade activities that made Tyre a prosperous city. The calm waters of the harbor reflect the clear blue sky, creating a serene and picturesque scene. The ruins of the ancient city of Tyre can be seen in the background, a testament to the city's rich history. The city's famous hippodrome, an ancient horse racing track, is also visible in the upper left corner of the photograph. This photograph provides a unique perspective into the past, allowing us to imagine the hustle and bustle of Tyre's harbor during the 16th century. It is a reminder of the city's enduring significance as a cultural and historical center, and a testament to the power of the sea in shaping the history of the Mediterranean world.
