23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 evocative photograph captures a French military train wagon making its way along the Berlin-Strasbourg rail line during the Cold War era. The image, taken in the 20th century, showcases the raw power and presence of the French military during a time of heightened tension and political instability in Europe. The wagon, adorned with the blue, white, and red tricolor flag of France, stands proudly against the backdrop of the railway tracks, its wheels turning steadily as it covers the path between the Allied-controlled sectors of Berlin and the city of Strasbourg in France. The contemporary age setting is emphasized by the absence of modern technology and the worn, weathered appearance of the train, adding to the historical significance of the moment. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Thaliastock / Mary Evans, serves as a poignant reminder of the military transport efforts that once connected divided cities and countries during the Cold War.
