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.

This photograph, taken circa 1890s, showcases a breathtaking view from the Palace in Lahore, Punjab, a city rich in history and culture that straddles the India-Pakistan border. The image transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the grandeur and beauty of the region during the British Raj. The Palace, an architectural marvel, stands proudly in the foreground, its imposing silhouette framing the scene. The red sandstone and white marble structure, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate domes, is a testament to the region's rich architectural heritage. The palace's serene courtyards and lush gardens, not visible in this photograph, were once the setting for grand feasts and royal receptions. Beyond the palace, the cityscape unfolds, revealing a bustling metropolis of narrow streets, colorful bazaars, and towering minarets. The vibrant hues of the city's buildings, bathed in the warm glow of the setting sun, create a stunning contrast against the clear blue sky. The photograph also captures the tranquil waters of the nearby lake, reflecting the golden light and adding to the scene's ethereal beauty. The view from the Palace in Lahore offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the city was a thriving center of trade, culture, and power.
