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 historic print captures a chilling moment during the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905. The image showcases the Red Cross train on the Trans-Siberian Railway, which was carrying wounded soldiers to Port Arthur. However, what should have been a symbol of compassion and humanitarian aid quickly turned into an act of aggression. Japanese forces can be seen firing upon the Russian Red Cross train, aiming their rifles at it amidst the harsh winter conditions. The stark contrast between the peaceful emblem of the Red Cross and the violence unfolding before our eyes is both striking and unsettling. This photograph serves as a reminder that even in times of war, there are supposed to be boundaries when it comes to targeting medical personnel or vehicles clearly marked with symbols of neutrality. The large group of men depicted in this scene highlights not only the intensity of conflict but also emphasizes how many lives were affected by this brutal war. The snowy landscape further accentuates the coldness and harshness surrounding these events. Originally published in "Le Petit Journal" from Paris on May 15th, 1904, this illustration-turned-photo provides us with a glimpse into one chapter of history where humanity's noble intentions clashed violently against each other's ambitions for power and control.
