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 photo print, we are transported back to the historic 1971 Five Nations Championship match between England and France at Twickenham. The image captures the legendary Frances Pierre Villepreux in action as he prepares to kick with unwavering determination. Villepreux, a revered figure in French rugby union history, stands tall on the hallowed grounds of Twickenham Stadium. His focused gaze reveals his sheer concentration and commitment to his craft. With every muscle engaged, he exudes an aura of confidence that is palpable even through the lens of Colin Elsey's camera. The intensity of this moment is heightened by the charged atmosphere surrounding him - a sea of passionate supporters from both nations eagerly watching his every move. It is a snapshot frozen in time that encapsulates not only Villepreux's immense skill but also the spirit and rivalry inherent in international rugby. This photograph serves as a testament to Villepreux's legacy as one of France's finest rugby players, showcasing his ability to rise above pressure and deliver when it matters most. As we admire this iconic image captured by Colorsport Images, we cannot help but be reminded of the rich history and timeless allure that surrounds the sport itself.
