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
1. Title: "A Glimpse of the Past: Port Said's Casino and Gardens, Egypt (circa 1910s)" This photograph transports us back in time to the bustling port city of Port Said, Egypt, during the 1910s. The image showcases the grandeur of the Casino and Gardens, a popular destination for both locals and foreigners. Port Said, established in 1859 as a French military and commercial outpost, was a melting pot of diverse cultures, including European, Middle Eastern, and African influences. The Casino and Gardens, a symbol of the city's cosmopolitan charm, reflects this rich cultural heritage. The Casino, located in the foreground, was a social hub for the European community in Port Said. It served as a venue for various social gatherings, games of chance, and entertainment. The ornate architecture of the building, with its columns, arches, and intricate details, speaks to the opulence and sophistication of the era. Beyond the Casino lies the lush, sprawling gardens. The greenery, dotted with palm trees and exotic flowers, provides a stark contrast to the arid desert landscape that surrounds Port Said. The gardens were a welcome respite for visitors seeking refuge from the heat and bustle of the city. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of Port Said, a city that played a significant role in Egypt's modern history. It serves as a reminder of the cultural and historical significance of this once-thriving port city. The Casino and Gardens, with their architectural grandeur and natural beauty, continue to captivate visitors to this day. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Port Said and its rich history.
