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
Amidst the vast, arid landscape of Algeria in 1903, an annual trading caravan makes its way northward. The photograph captures a moment in time as the caravan, a vibrant and colorful procession of camels laden with goods, travels across the sandy terrain. The Algerian trade caravan was a long-standing tradition that connected various communities and tribes across the region, facilitating the exchange of goods and strengthening cultural ties. The caravan's journey began in the southern regions of Algeria, where precious commodities such as salt, dates, and textiles were sourced. These goods were then transported northward, passing through oases and settlements, before reaching their final destination in the bustling markets of Algiers. The caravan's route was not an easy one, as it traversed rugged terrain and harsh weather conditions, making the journey a test of endurance and resilience for both the traders and their camels. Despite the challenges, the annual trading caravan was a vital lifeline for many communities in Algeria. It provided an opportunity for people to access essential goods and services, fostered economic activity, and promoted cultural exchange. The photograph offers a glimpse into this rich tradition, capturing the spirit of community, resilience, and ingenuity that defined the Algerian trading caravan.
