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
Manica Road, Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe), Circa 1908: A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene on Manica Road in Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe), circa 1908. The wide, tree-lined street is filled with a diverse mix of people and transportation, offering a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of this colonial city during the early 1900s. In the foreground, a man in a European-style suit and hat walks confidently along the road, while a group of African men in traditional attire engage in conversation nearby. The sound of hooves clattering on the cobblestones can be heard as a horse-drawn carriage approaches from the left, its passengers peering out at the passing scene. Meanwhile, a man on a bicycle makes his way along the road, the spokes of his wheels barely visible against the dusty ground. Pedestrians, both European and African, dodge between the vehicles, some carrying bundles on their heads or pushing carts laden with goods. The architecture of the buildings lining the street speaks to the colonial influence, with their red-tiled roofs and whitewashed walls. The trees along the roadside provide a welcome respite from the heat, their branches shading the pedestrians below. This photograph offers a unique window into the past, showcasing the vibrant and diverse community that called Salisbury home during the early days of colonial rule. It serves as a reminder of the rich history and complex cultural tapestry that makes up the story of Zimbabwe.
