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.

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 evocative photograph captures a young and determined Louis Napoleon Bonaparte, the nephew and heir of Napoleon Bonaparte, at the age of 13, embarking on his military journey as a cadet in the French army. The image, taken between 1856 and 1879, shows Louis Napoleon in full military regalia, standing confidently with his hands behind his back, as he bids farewell to his father, Napoleon III, before setting off to war. The backdrop of this historic moment is the Second French Empire, a period of political instability and conflict in Europe. Louis Napoleon's father, Napoleon III, had come to power in 1852 through a coup d'état and ruled until his defeat in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870. The defeat at Sedan in 1870 marked the end of the Second French Empire and the beginning of the Third French Republic. In this photograph, we see a young Louis Napoleon, who would later become Napoleon III, joining his father in the military campaign. However, after the French defeat at Sedan, Louis Napoleon, along with his family, fled to Belgium and then to England, where he went into exile. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the tumultuous political climate of the time and the fate of the Bonaparte dynasty. It also highlights the young Louis Napoleon's courage and determination, as he followed in the footsteps of his legendary uncle, Napoleon Bonaparte, and prepared to take on the challenges of war and leadership.
