Ceylon Elephant Lanka Rides Sapphire
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
Step back in time and experience the enchanting fusion of tradition and modernity in this poster advertising Air Ceylon's "Sapphire Service." The image transports us to a bygone era, where an elegantly dressed man rides majestically on an ornate, decorated elephant against the backdrop of a serene Lankan landscape. The tranquility of the scene is shattered, however, by the unexpected appearance of a sleek, modern aeroplane soaring overhead. The contrast between the ancient and the modern is a testament to the remarkable progress and evolution of air travel in Asia. Air Ceylon's "Sapphire Service" promised its passengers a journey filled with comfort, luxury, and the wonders of the world, all from the convenience of a state-of-the-art aircraft. This historical poster, with its intricate design and vivid colors, invites us to embark on a journey of discovery, both to the far-off lands of Sri Lanka and to the fascinating history of air travel. Let your imagination take flight as you explore the beauty and wonder of this unique blend of cultures and technologies.
