Morocco Tangier Walls Scrubland
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 photograph captures the breathtaking view of Tangier City Walls in Morocco, North Africa, circa 1900. The image showcases the ancient fortifications that once protected the bustling port city from invaders. The city walls, a testament to the rich history of Morocco, are surrounded by a vast expanse of scrubland, providing a stark contrast to the urban landscape within. The golden hues of the sandy terrain blend seamlessly with the warm tones of the city walls, creating a visually stunning tableau. The lantern-like towers of the walls, standing tall and proud, are illuminated by the soft, golden light filtering through the clouds. The intricate designs and patterns etched into the walls are a reflection of the intricate and ornate craftsmanship that is synonymous with Moroccan architecture. The towers, once used as lookout points, offer a glimpse into the strategic importance of Tangier as a trading hub and cultural melting pot. The serene and untouched scrubland outside the city walls adds to the allure of this photograph. The landscape, dotted with sparse vegetation, is a reminder of the harsh yet beautiful natural surroundings that surround the city. The juxtaposition of the ancient city walls and the untouched wilderness outside is a testament to the coexistence of the past and the present in this fascinating North African destination. This photograph is a part of the Boswell Collection, a treasure trove of historical images that offer a glimpse into the past. The image invites us to explore the rich history and culture of Tangier and Morocco, and to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this enchanting North African destination.
