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 captures a dramatic moment in the lives of two Russian aeronauts. As they embarked on a thrilling balloon excursion, their plans were abruptly halted by an unexpected hurricane. Forced to descend into the vast steppe below, they soon found themselves surrounded by a pack of hungry wolves. In this vivid illustration by Achille Beltrame, we witness the intense struggle for survival that ensued. With revolvers in hand, these brave aviators valiantly defended themselves against the relentless onslaught of their wild adversaries. The snowy landscape adds an additional layer of danger and tension to the scene as snowflakes fall around them. Published in Courier Sunday on April 21st, 1935, this image serves as a testament to both human resilience and nature's unforgiving power. It reminds us of the risks faced by early pioneers of aviation who dared to explore uncharted territories from above. Beltrame's masterful use of color lithography brings every detail to life - from the menacing glint in each wolf's eye to the intricate patterns on the hot air balloon itself. This artwork not only showcases his talent as an illustrator but also highlights his ability to capture moments filled with action and emotion. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time and reminded of humanity's indomitable spirit when faced with adversity.
