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: "Fort Michael in Sevastopol: A Blend of History and Contemporary Soviet Architecture Overlooking the Black Sea" This evocative photograph captures the stunning panorama of Fort Michael in Sevastopol, Ukraine, nestled on the Crimean Peninsula. The image showcases the complex interplay of historical and contemporary architecture, with the ancient fortress standing proudly against the backdrop of buildings constructed during the Soviet era. Fort Michael, a significant historical site, dates back to the 19th century and has played a pivotal role in the city's rich history. The fortress, with its intricate defensive structures and imposing walls, has stood as a symbol of resilience and strength throughout various eras. The fort's strategic location on the coast, overlooking the tranquil waters of the Black Sea, adds to its allure. In the foreground, modern Soviet-style buildings are visible, a stark contrast to the old fortress. These structures, which emerged during the communist era, serve as a reminder of the city's more recent history. The Second World War and the Siege of Sevastopol left indelible marks on the city, and these buildings stand as testaments to the era of communism and the Soviet Union's defense efforts. The Mykhaylovskaya Battery, a part of Fort Michael, is also visible in the photograph. This battery, with its impressive cannons, played a crucial role in the defense of Sevastopol during the Crimean War and the Siege of Sevastopol in World War II. Today, it serves as a museum, offering visitors a glimpse into the city's fascinating history. The photograph offers an overview of Sevastopol's unique geography, with its coastal location and the vast expanse of the Black Sea in the background. The image invites us to reflect on the city's complex history, the interplay of old and new, and the enduring allure of this historic fortress.
