31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 print from Universal Images Group (UIG) takes us back to a significant moment in history - January 1st, 1899. The image showcases a unique blend of American and Spanish soldiers standing proudly in front of the majestic Captain-Generals Palace in Havana. This powerful visual encapsulates the complex relationship between these two nations during this era. The grandeur of the palace serves as a backdrop, symbolizing Spain's colonial rule over Cuba. The architecture exudes an air of authority and power, contrasting with the presence of both American and Spanish soldiers in their respective uniforms. Their coexistence within this frame hints at the transitional period that followed the end of the Spanish-American War. As we delve into this photograph, it becomes evident that it holds immense historical significance for both American and Spanish history. It represents not only a changing political landscape but also reflects upon moments when cultures collide amidst shifting global dynamics. Beyond its historical context, this image is visually striking; capturing an intriguing juxtaposition between old-world charm and emerging modernity. Through UIG's meticulous preservation efforts, we are fortunate to witness this frozen moment from more than a century ago – allowing us to reflect on how our world has evolved since then
