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 catalog illustration showcases a selection of exquisite donations made during the post-war period in the late 1890s, primarily to aid wounded soldiers and their families in the Middle East, during the final decades of the Ottoman Empire. The first item depicted is a stunning pair of embroidered cloths, crafted from precious silk and velvet, graciously donated by the Sultan's mother, adding a touch of elegance and luxury to the cause. Next, an ancient Yataghan sword with an intricately ornate scabbard, encrusted with coral, is displayed. This magnificent weapon was generously donated by Marshal Hassan Pasha, the esteemed Master of Military Ceremonies, symbolizing the strength and valor of the Ottoman military. Lastly, a beautiful vase from Saxony is featured, kindly donated by Nishan Efendi Kazazian. This fine piece of European craftsmanship adds a sense of diversity and inclusivity to the collection, reflecting the multicultural nature of the Ottoman Empire during this time. This chromolithograph, created in the French style, serves as an illustrated catalog for a fundraising bazaar, highlighting the generosity and patronage of various individuals during a time of great need. The Arabic text in the illustration further emphasizes the Eastern influence on the Ottoman Empire, making this a truly unique and historically significant piece.
