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 evocative photograph captures the vibrant and multicultural atmosphere of Thessaloniki, Greece, in the early 20th century. The scene unfolds on Rue Hamidie, a bustling street named after His Imperial Majesty, Sultan Abdulhamid II, the Ottoman Emperor and Caliph of the Faithful (1842-1918), also known as Abd Al-Hamid II Khan Ghazi and The Crimson Sultan. The year is 1911, and the city, then part of the Ottoman Empire, was a melting pot of various ethnic and religious communities. In the foreground, a dog sits calmly on the cobblestone street, seemingly undisturbed by the hustle and bustle around it. A horse-drawn tram passes by, its passengers gazing out at the sights, while pedestrians go about their daily errands. The Hamidie Fountain, a grand architectural landmark, dominates the background. The intricately designed fountain, built in 1891, was a symbol of the Ottoman Empire's prosperity and grandeur. Thessaloniki, also known as Salonica or Thessalonica, was a significant commercial hub in the eastern Mediterranean. This photograph offers a glimpse into the city's rich history and diverse cultural heritage, showcasing the coexistence of various communities, including Jews, Greeks, Turks, and others. The image also serves as a reminder of the city's multifaceted past, which has been shaped by various empires and influences over the centuries.
