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 photograph captures the essence of traditional Tunisian women's attire and ornamentation, showcasing a woman adorned with an intricately designed coin necklace, metal bangles, and a pointed hat. The necklace, made of numerous strings of coins with holes in the middle, is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Tunisia. The coins, worn not only as jewelry but also as a symbol of wealth and status, add an air of antiquity to the image. The woman's thin, silken clothing draped elegantly over her hips complements the heavy metal jewelry, creating a striking contrast. The pointed hat, a common accessory in North African cultures, completes the ensemble, adding a touch of mystique and allure. This photograph, taken in 1917, offers a glimpse into the past and provides insight into the ornamentation and fashion of Tunisian women during that era. The intricate details of the jewelry, the delicate fabric of the clothing, and the proud posture of the woman all contribute to the timeless beauty of this image. The use of metal bangles and strings of coins with holes in the middle is a common theme in African jewelry and can be traced back to ancient civilizations such as the Carthaginians and Romans, who occupied Tunisia at various points in history. The intricate design and historical significance of this necklace make it a prized possession and a symbol of Tunisian heritage.
