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.

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 takes us back to the momentous events of 14th July 1789, when French troops stormed the Bastille during the French Revolution. The image captures the intensity and chaos of that historic day, as a crowd of determined revolutionaries gathers outside the prison walls. The Bastille, a symbol of oppression under the despised Bourbon monarchy, stood tall in defiance. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an army of rebels armed with weapons storming towards their target. Smoke billows from guns fired into the air, creating an atmosphere thick with tension and anticipation. The composition is powerful yet hauntingly beautiful; it transports us to a pivotal moment in history where violence clashed against tyranny. The landscape is shrouded in darkness as if echoing the struggles faced by those fighting for freedom. Bastille Day now commemorates this event every year, marking its significance as a turning point in French culture and history. This photograph serves as a reminder of how ordinary people can come together to challenge oppressive regimes and fight for justice. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artwork after Jules David's original creation, we are reminded not only of France's revolutionary past but also our shared human capacity for resilience and determination in times of conflict.
