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
In this historic photograph, Ras Taffari, the Regent of Ethiopia, stands proudly on the steps of his palace in Addis Ababa, assuming the title of Negus, or King, on November 2, 1928. Surrounded by a sea of Ethiopian dignitaries, soldiers, and citizens, Ras Taffari basks in the adulation of his people as they applaud and cheer in celebration of this momentous occasion. The Regency Council had chosen Ras Taffari, a highly respected military leader and statesman, to lead Ethiopia following the death of Emperor Yohannes IV in 1913. Over the ensuing years, Ras Taffari skillfully navigated the complex political landscape of Ethiopia and Africa, securing the loyalty of his people and strengthening Ethiopia's position on the world stage. The title of Negus was a significant milestone in Ras Taffari's career, marking his transition from regent to monarch. This event was a testament to his leadership abilities and the support he had earned from the Ethiopian people. The photograph captures a pivotal moment in Ethiopian history, as the country moved towards modernization and greater international recognition. Ras Taffari's reign as Negus would later be known as the "Era of the Last Kings," as he would go on to rule Ethiopia until his own death in 1930. This period saw significant progress in areas such as education, infrastructure development, and diplomacy. The legacy of Ras Taffari, who later became known as Emperor Haile Selassie I, would endure long after his death, shaping the course of Ethiopian history for generations to come. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage of Ethiopia, a country that has played a vital role in African history and continues to inspire and captivate the world. The image of Ras Taffari, applauded by his people, stands as a symbol of hope, resilience, and the power of unity in the face of adversity.
