17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 striking portrait captures the intense and charismatic gaze of Leon Trotsky, a key figure in the Russian Revolution and a prominent member of the Bolshevik Party. The photograph was taken on October 16, 1920, during a pivotal moment in Trotsky's political career. At the time, he was serving as the People's Commissar for Foreign Affairs, a position he held from 1917 to 1918 and then again from 1930 to 1932. Trotsky's revolutionary activities began in the late 1890s, and he quickly rose through the ranks of the Bolshevik Party, becoming a trusted advisor to Vladimir Lenin. He played a critical role in the October Revolution of 1917, which overthrew the Russian Provisional Government and established the Soviet Union. Trotsky's military leadership during the Russian Civil War helped secure the new regime's victory. Despite his contributions to the Bolshevik cause, Trotsky's political views diverged from those of Stalin and other Soviet leaders in the late 1920s. He was expelled from the Communist Party in 1927 and eventually exiled from the Soviet Union in 1929. Trotsky spent the rest of his life in exile, traveling between various countries and continuing to advocate for his political beliefs. He was assassinated in Mexico in 1940. This portrait offers a glimpse into the complex and fascinating life of one of the most influential figures of the 20th century. With his piercing eyes and determined expression, Trotsky's gaze seems to challenge us to consider the complexities of revolutionary politics and the human cost of political ideology.
