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 enchanting engraving depicts a traditional Turkish wooden pleasure house, a quintessential symbol of Ottoman architecture and daily life. Dating back to the 19th century, this exquisite work of art was created by the skilled hands of Lemaitre, Danvin, and Lepetit, and published as part of the comprehensive work "Historia de Turquia" by Joseph Marie Jouannin and Jules Van Gaver. The Turkish wooden pleasure house, also known as a yali, is a type of traditional Ottoman waterfront mansion. These grand structures were built along the shores of the Bosphorus and other waterways, offering their inhabitants a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. The exterior facade of the house in this engraving is adorned with intricate wood carvings, showcasing the exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail that were hallmarks of Ottoman architecture. The scene captures a bustling day at the waterfront, with people going about their daily tasks. Boats are moored along the shore, and merchants and traders can be seen exchanging goods. In the foreground, a group of women clad in traditional Turkish garments can be seen sitting on the balcony of the house, enjoying the view and the cool breeze. The men, dressed in their finest attire, gather around a table on the terrace, engaged in animated conversation. This engraving offers a glimpse into the rich cultural traditions and daily life of the Ottoman Empire, a time when such wooden pleasure houses were a symbol of wealth, status, and leisure. It is a testament to the beauty and elegance of Turkish architecture, and a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Ottoman Empire.
