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
This print showcases the historic lighthouse in Swakopmund, Namibia. Constructed in 1902, this architectural gem stood at a modest eleven meters high until its height was nearly doubled in 1910. The red and white structure stands tall against the backdrop of the stunning Namib Desert, exuding an air of colonial charm. The lighthouse serves as a testament to Namibia's rich history as a former German colony. Its presence is a reminder of the country's past and its enduring ties to European influence. Standing proudly amidst palm trees, it offers both locals and visitors alike a glimpse into the nation's cultural heritage. Located along the Skeleton Coast, this iconic landmark has become one of Namibia's most popular travel destinations. Travelers are drawn to its unique blend of African and colonial architecture that tells stories from generations past. Nigel Pavitt expertly captures this remarkable sight through his lens, allowing viewers to appreciate not only the grandeur of the lighthouse but also its significance within sub-Saharan Africa. This awe-inspiring image invites us to explore and discover more about this enchanting corner of our world.
