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
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, the impressive administration buildings of the Suez Canal Company stand proudly on the western bank of the Suez Canal in Port Said, Egypt. The image, taken from the Mediterranean Sea circa 1920, showcases the architectural grandeur of the time, with the buildings' intricate facades reflecting on the tranquil waters. The Suez Canal Company, also known as the Compagnie Universelle du Canal Maritime de Suez, was established in 1858 to oversee the construction and operation of the Suez Canal. The canal, which connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea, revolutionized global trade by significantly reducing the time and distance required for ships to travel between Europe and Asia. The buildings in the photograph now serve as the headquarters of the Suez Canal Authority (SCA), which took over the management of the canal in 1956 following Egypt's nationalization. The SCA continues to play a crucial role in the operation and maintenance of the Suez Canal, making it an essential hub for international maritime trade. The scene is further enlivened by the presence of boats in the foreground, adding a sense of activity and movement to the otherwise static image. The Mediterranean Sea stretches out behind the buildings, its calm waters reflecting the clear blue sky above. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the historical significance and enduring importance of the Suez Canal and its administration buildings in Port Said.
