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
Sultan Abdulhamid II: The Last Great Sultan of the Ottoman Empire (circa 1916) This portrait captures Sultan Abdulhamid II (1842-1918), the 34th Sultan of the Ottoman Empire and the last to effectively control the Empire as a whole. Born in Istanbul, Abdulhamid ascended to the throne in 1876, during a time of great political instability and external pressures from European powers. Abdulhamid's reign is marked by his efforts to modernize the Ottoman Empire and strengthen its borders. He implemented various reforms, including the establishment of a modern postal system, the introduction of a new currency, and the expansion of education. Additionally, he sought to improve the military and infrastructure, and worked to maintain diplomatic relations with European powers. Despite his attempts at modernization, Abdulhamid's rule was marked by increasing authoritarianism and repression. He suspended the Ottoman Parliament in 1878 and ruled as an absolute monarch, using the secret police to suppress opposition and silence critics. This striking portrait of Abdulhamid II, dressed in the traditional Ottoman attire of a red fez and a long robe, exudes an air of authority and strength. The oval border and intricate script add a sense of historical authenticity, while the Sultan's intense gaze and regal posture convey his determination and leadership. Max Fruchtermann, a renowned German photographer, captured this image of Abdulhamid II during the latter years of his reign, around 1916. Fruchtermann was known for his portraits of world leaders and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects. This photograph is a testament to his skill and a valuable historical record of one of the most significant figures in Ottoman history.
