Commercial Mail Nefertiti Steamship Olbia
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 showcases the elegant Khedivial Mail Line S.A.E. T.S.S. El Malek Fouad, a steamship that graced the waters of the Mediterranean Sea during the 1940s. Built in 1947, this magnificent vessel was named after the Khedive of Egypt, Fouad I, and served as a symbol of luxury and sophistication during its time. The El Malek Fouad was a magnificent sight to behold, with its sleek lines, tall funnels, and grand scale. The ship's intricate design and ornate details reflect the rich cultural heritage of Egypt and North Africa. The vessel's name, written in elegant script along the hull, adds to its regal appearance. Despite its impressive size, the El Malek Fouad was a passenger ship, designed to provide comfortable and luxurious accommodations for travelers crossing the Mediterranean. The ship's interior was adorned with opulent furnishings, fine linens, and exquisite artwork, making for a truly unforgettable travel experience. In the late 1950s, the El Malek Fouad was renamed Nefertiti, and later in the 1960s, it was given the name Olbia. However, no matter what name it went by, this magnificent steamship remained a testament to the grandeur and elegance of a bygone era. This photograph captures the El Malek Fouad in all its glory, as it sails serenely across the tranquil waters of the Mediterranean Sea. The sun casts a warm golden light over the ship, highlighting its intricate details and creating a scene that is both timeless and enchanting.
