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
This handcolored lithograph depicts an enchanting scene of ancient Egyptian structures nestled along the shores of Lake Moeris, or Lake Karun, in El Fayum, Egypt. The serene waters reflect the majestic silhouettes of pyramids and the intricately carved Temple of Hapi, the god of the Nile flood. The temple, with its tall columns and ornate decorations, stands proudly against the backdrop of the barren desert landscape. The pyramids, a testament to the engineering prowess of the ancient Egyptians, rise gracefully from the sand, their once-white limestone exteriors now weathered and worn. The image captures the ethereal beauty of this historical site, transporting us back in time to the rich cultural heritage of Northeastern Egypt. The lithograph is taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, published in Meissen around 1835-1840. This collection of handcolored lithographs was an important contribution to the fields of ethnography, anthropology, and history, providing detailed and accurate representations of various peoples, customs, and costumes from around the world.
