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
This evocative photograph captures the bustling activity at the docks of Alexandria, Egypt, in the late 19th century. The image, taken around the 1880s or 1890s, presents a panoramic view of the harbor, filled with ships of various sizes and shapes, their sails billowing in the wind. The docks themselves are teeming with workers and porters, loading and unloading goods from the ships, while horse-drawn carts and carriages wait to transport the cargo to its final destination. In the background, the distinctive architecture of Alexandria's urban landscape comes into view, with grand buildings and narrow streets creating a mosaic of activity and culture. The city's iconic landmarks, such as the Pharos Lighthouse and the Alexandria Library, can be glimpsed in the distance, adding to the historical significance of the scene. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich and vibrant history of Alexandria, a city that has long been a melting pot of different cultures and traditions. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness the daily life and activity of this bustling port city during an era of great change and transformation. The photograph's vintage aesthetic, with its grainy texture and muted colors, only adds to its authenticity and charm, making it a valuable addition to any collection of historical images of Alexandria and Egypt.
