Canal Colonialism Deck Marketing Suez
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
This striking poster, created by the Empire Marketing Board in the 1930s, showcases a captivating view of the Suez Canal from the deck of a ship. The Suez Canal, an engineering marvel of its time, was a vital waterway for transportation and trade between Europe and Africa, significantly reducing the journey time between the two continents. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the colonial era when European powers exerted influence over various parts of Africa. The poster's design, with its bold lines and vibrant colors, effectively conveys the sense of adventure and discovery that came with traveling by sea. The Suez Canal, completed in 1869, was a testament to human ingenuity and the power of engineering. It allowed for the efficient movement of goods and people between Europe and Africa, fostering cultural exchange and economic growth. This poster, produced by the Empire Marketing Board, served as a promotional tool to showcase the importance of this historical waterway and the opportunities it presented. As we gaze at this image, we are reminded of the rich history of global exploration and the interconnectedness of different parts of the world. The Suez Canal continues to be a vital transportation route, serving as a testament to the enduring significance of waterways in shaping the world we live in today.
