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 photograph, taken in 1922, showcases a breathtaking view of the fort and pier on the beautiful island of St. Vincent (São Vicente) in the Cape Verde Islands, situated in the Atlantic Ocean. The image transports us back to the 1920s, a decade marked by the Roaring Twenties and the Jazz Age. The serene waters of the ocean meet the rugged coastline, where the pier extends gracefully into the sea. A custom house pier, it was a vital hub for the exchange of goods and people, as boats of all sizes bob gently in the water, waiting to be unloaded. In the background, the imposing fort stands proudly on a hill, a testament to the island's rich history. Its cannons, once used to protect against invaders, now remain silent, watching over the bustling harbor below. Cranes, with their long arms reaching towards the sky, are busy lifting gear, a reminder of the island's economic importance. People, dressed in the fashion of the era, can be seen milling about, adding a sense of life and energy to the scene. This photograph is a beautiful snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the past and the unique character of St. Vincent Island during the 1920s.
