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
In this iconic print captured by Colorsport Images, we witness a pivotal moment in the history of rugby union. The stage is set at Eden Park, Auckland, for the highly anticipated 1987 Rugby World Cup Final between New Zealand and France. As the All Blacks' hooker Sean Fitzpatrick charges forward with determination etched on his face, he finds himself confronted by an immovable force in the form of France's full back Serge Blanco. The intensity of this clash is palpable as Fitzpatrick braces himself for impact while Blanco lunges towards him with unwavering commitment. Both players epitomize the essence of their respective teams - strength, resilience, and unyielding spirit. It is a battle that encapsulates not only physicality but also mental fortitude. This photograph freezes a fleeting moment that symbolizes the relentless pursuit of victory within rugby's grandest stage. The contrasting colors on display further emphasize the significance of this encounter; black representing New Zealand's indomitable legacy and blue signifying France's audacious challenge to disrupt it. As spectators gaze upon this image years later, they are reminded not only of these two remarkable athletes but also of the enduring allure and drama that rugby possesses. It serves as a testament to how sport can captivate hearts and minds across generations. Colorsport / Elsey has once again immortalized an unforgettable chapter in sporting history through their lens, allowing us to relive an extraordinary contest where heroes were made and legends were born.
