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
In this photograph, taken during the 2006-07 Coca-Cola Football League Championship match between Preston North End and Birmingham City at Deepdale, the focus is on Birmingham City midfielder Mehdi Nafti as he skillfully maneuvers the ball past a determined Preston North End defender. The tension in the air is palpable as the home team tries to regain possession and prevent Birmingham City from scoring the decisive goal. The atmosphere at Deepdale that day was electric, with both sets of fans passionately cheering on their teams. The Coca-Cola Football League Championship was the highest tier of English football outside the Premier League at the time, and every match was a crucial opportunity for teams to secure a place in the top flight. Mehdi Nafti, a Tunisian international, was a key player for Birmingham City that season. His technical ability, vision, and creativity in midfield were instrumental in helping his team secure a play-off place and ultimately promotion to the Premier League. In this moment, he demonstrates his class and composure, leaving the Preston North End defender in his wake and setting up an attack that could potentially lead to a goal. Martin Rickett, the talented photographer, expertly captures the intensity and excitement of the match, with the vibrant colors of the players' kits and the lush green grass of the pitch adding to the visual appeal. The photograph is a testament to the passion, skill, and drama that is synonymous with football at the highest level. This photograph is a cherished memory for Birmingham City fans, reminding them of the team's journey to the Premier League and the pivotal role that Mehdi Nafti played in that achievement. It is a snapshot of football history, frozen in time, and a reminder of the thrill and excitement that comes with supporting a team through the ups and downs of the beautiful game.
