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 engraving captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting the tragic demise of King Harold of England during the Battle of Hastings on October 14, 1066. The image showcases the intensity and brutality of warfare in the 11th century, as William, Duke of Normandy, aims an arrow towards Harold's eye with fatal precision. The artist skillfully portrays King Harold II as a regal figure, emphasizing his royal status and importance to English history. With blood staining his armor and pain etched across his face, Harold's fate is sealed in this climactic scene. This print from "The New, Impartial and Complete History of England" by Edward Barnard transports us back to London in 1783 when it was first published. As we delve into this historical illustration, we are reminded of the significance that this battle had on shaping England's destiny. It marked William's conquest over Anglo-Saxon rule and led to him becoming known as William the Conqueror. This vintage engraving serves as a powerful reminder of our past and invites us to reflect upon the sacrifices made by those who fought for power and control. Through its archival nature, it allows us to explore a period long gone but not forgotten – one filled with bravery, conflict, and ultimately change.
