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.

Como, Italy - The Cathedral and Belfry (November 18, 1898)
EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the breathtaking beauty of Como, Italy's most iconic landmarks: the Cathedral and Belfry. Taken in November 1898 by the skilled photographer Manuel Wielandt, this image transports us back in time to the late 19th century. The Cathedral of Como, also known as Duomo di Como, is a magnificent example of Gothic architecture. Its intricate facade is adorned with elaborate carvings, vibrant frescoes, and ornate columns. The Cathedral's twin towers, which house the bells, rise majestically towards the sky, creating a sense of awe and wonder. The Belfry, or Campanile, is a separate structure located next to the Cathedral. It was built in the 14th century and stands at a height of 102 meters (335 feet). The Belfry's clock face, visible in this photograph, is a testament to the precision and craftsmanship of the time. The peaceful scene is further enhanced by the absence of modern distractions. Horse-drawn carriages and people in traditional Italian attire can be seen on the cobblestone streets, adding to the authenticity of the image. The lake, which reflects the beauty of the Cathedral and Belfry, adds a tranquil element to the photograph. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering us a glimpse of Como as it was over a century ago. The Cathedral and Belfry continue to be major tourist attractions in Como, drawing visitors from all corners of the world. This image is a reminder of the enduring beauty and charm of this Italian town and its rich history.
