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 the early 1910s, showcases the stunning Church of the Assumption of Our Lady, or Mosta Dome, in the heart of Malta. Located in the town of Mosta, this Roman Catholic church is a marvel of architectural beauty and historical significance. The fourth largest unsupported dome in the world, it is a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The Mosta Dome, also known as Rotunda of St Marija Assunta, is dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. Its impressive dome, adorned with intricate details and ornate columns, rises majestically against the clear blue Maltese sky. The church's front facade is equally breathtaking, with a grand colonnade that invites visitors to explore its sacred halls. Malta, an overseas British territory in the Mediterranean Sea, was a popular destination for travelers during the early 20th century. This photograph captures a moment in time when the island was still under British rule, with tour buses parked outside the church, ready to transport visitors to discover the wonders of Malta. The Mosta Dome is not just a religious site but also a symbol of Maltese pride and heritage. Its enduring beauty continues to attract visitors from around the world, who come to marvel at its architectural grandeur and historical significance. This photograph is a glimpse into the past, offering a window into a time when Malta's rich cultural heritage was just beginning to be discovered by the wider world.
