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
Great image from the annals of Chelsea Football Club history, captured by renowned photographer Hugh Hastings during the 1980 pre-season photocall at Stamford Bridge in London. In this evocative snapshot, we see a young and dynamic Ray Wilkins, then a key player for the Blues, engaging with the media and fans with his characteristic charisma and charm. The 1980s were a pivotal decade for Chelsea Football Club, as they navigated the challenges of the Football League First Division and the ever-evolving landscape of professional football. Wilkins, a midfielder of exceptional talent and vision, was a vital figure in the team during this period. He made his Chelsea debut in 1973 and went on to make over 400 appearances for the club, scoring 49 goals and earning the moniker "Butch" for his tenacious style of play. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of Wilkins' time at Stamford Bridge and the era of football that defined his career. The setting, with the iconic bridge and floodlights of the stadium in the background, adds to the sense of history and nostalgia. The image also underscores the importance of media engagement and the role of photocalls in building the relationship between players and fans. As we appreciate this historic image, we can't help but be reminded of the rich legacy of Chelsea Football Club and the players who have contributed to its storied past. Ray Wilkins' indelible impact on the team and the sport is a testament to the enduring power of football to captivate and inspire.
