1752 Ambassador Diplomacy Elephant Receives
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 print from 1752, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the rich and intricate world of politics and diplomacy during the imperial era of China. The image depicts the Emperor of China, resplendent in his regal attire, seated on a grand throne, as he receives the Russian Ambassador in audience. The ambassador, dressed in the traditional robes of his office, bows low in respect before the emperor, signifying the formal diplomatic exchange between their nations. The setting of this historic encounter is further enhanced by the presence of an elegant and majestic elephant, which stands nearby, adorned with intricate gold and red decorations. The inclusion of the elephant, a symbol of power and wealth, underscores the grandeur and importance of the diplomatic mission. The year was 1752, a time when China, under the Qing Dynasty, was one of the most powerful and influential empires in the world. The Russian ambassador's visit to the Chinese court was a significant event, reflecting the growing diplomatic and economic ties between the two nations. The exchange of gifts, the signing of treaties, and the establishment of diplomatic relations were all crucial aspects of this encounter, which played a pivotal role in shaping the political landscape of East Asia. This exquisite print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, offers a fascinating window into the past, providing us with a glimpse into the world of imperial diplomacy and the complex web of relationships that existed between the major powers of the time. It is a reminder of the rich and complex history that lies at the heart of the relationship between China and Russia, a relationship that continues to shape the world today.
