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
Richard of India: A Maharajah's Grand Visit to Constantinople in 1902 This evocative photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, as Maharajah Richard of Indore, an Indian prince of the Maratha Empire, stands proudly in the grandeur of his ornate Victorian finery against the backdrop of an opulent Istanbul interior. Dressed in a rich, late-19th century costume, the Maharajah wears a magnificent turban adorned with precious jewels and intricate embroidery, a resplendent gown, and carries a fine cane. The Maharajah's visit to Constantinople, now Istanbul, was a testament to the rich cultural exchanges that took place between the East and the West during this period. The room, filled with exquisite furniture and a plush carpet, further underscores the wealth and grandeur of the Maharajah's entourage. The historical significance of this photograph lies in the juxtaposition of the Maharajah's traditional Indian attire with the European-influenced surroundings. Richard of Indore, who ruled his principality from 1886 to 1902, was known for his embrace of Western education and modernization, making this image a poignant representation of the complex interplay between tradition and innovation during the late Victorian era. The Maharajah's regal demeanor and the ornate details of his attire, combined with the finely crafted furnishings and the intricate rug, create a captivating tableau that transports us to a time when the world was more interconnected than ever before. This photograph is a testament to the rich history and the intriguing stories that lie within the pages of history, offering a glimpse into a fascinating moment in time.
