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.

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, titled "Turkish Cavalry, Artillery Man, and Turkish Women and Children," is an intriguing glimpse into the ethnographic and historical record of the Ottoman Empire during the early 19th century. The image, taken from Friedrich Wilhelm Goedsche's Complete Gallery of Peoples in True Pictures, published in Meissen around 1835-1840, showcases the diverse elements of Turkish society, including military personnel and civilians. At the center of the composition, a Turkish cavalryman is depicted in full regalia, his horse adorned with intricate decorations and his scimitar at the ready. To his left, an artillery man stands proudly next to a bombardier, both dressed in their respective uniforms and holding their weapons. The attention to detail in the depiction of their uniforms and equipment is remarkable, providing valuable insights into the organization and appearance of the Ottoman military during this period. To the right of the military personnel, a group of Turkish women and children are shown, adding a domestic and humanizing element to the scene. The women are dressed in colorful, flowing garments, while the children, some clad in simple clothing and others in diapers, play and interact with each other. In the background, a Turkish flag flies proudly, while gold coins are scattered on the ground, perhaps indicating a market scene or a display of wealth. This lithograph is an important historical and anthropological document, offering a glimpse into the customs, costumes, and daily life of the Ottoman people during a time of significant change and transformation. The handcoloring adds a vibrant and detailed quality to the image, making it a captivating and visually rich representation of a bygone era.
