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
In this evocative image from the 1980s, a veiled Muslim woman navigates the dusty, sandy streets of Nefta, Tunisia, her figure framed by the arched doorway of a nondescript building. The door bears an intriguing graffiti of the iconic silhouette of Charlie Chaplin, the legendary British comedian and filmmaker, adding an unexpected layer of intrigue to the scene. Nefta, located in the southern region of the Tunisian desert, known as the El Djerid, is a quaint and picturesque town nestled amidst the vast, arid landscape. The town's unique character is further enhanced by its rich history and diverse cultural influences, which are reflected in the colorful and eclectic mix of architecture, art, and daily life. The year was 1987, and the 1980s had brought a renewed interest in the arts and culture of North Africa, with many travelers and adventurers drawn to the region's exotic allure. The image captures a moment of serendipitous encounter between the traditional and the modern, the East and the West, as the veiled woman passes by the Charlie Chaplin sign, seemingly unaware of the connection her passage creates. The scene is further enhanced by the warm, golden hues of the desert sun, casting long shadows and bathing the town in a soft, ethereal light. The image is a testament to the enduring power of art and the human spirit, as well as the rich tapestry of history and culture that connects us all. This photograph is a rare and captivating glimpse into a bygone era, and a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the world around us. It is a must-have for anyone with an interest in travel, history, or the arts, and a beautiful addition to any collection.
