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
This print titled "H. M. Ships Erebus and Terror in the Ross Sea" takes us back to a significant moment in history - the ill-fated British voyage of Arctic exploration led by Captain Sir John Franklin in 1845. The image, captured by artist John Edward Davis, portrays the two majestic ships amidst the icy expanse of the Ross Sea. As we gaze upon this scene, we cannot help but feel a sense of adventure tinged with foreboding. These vessels were embarking on a perilous journey through uncharted waters, seeking to conquer the elusive Northwest Passage. However, their fate was sealed as they encountered treacherous conditions that would ultimately lead to their doom. The painting beautifully captures both the grandeur and vulnerability of these polar explorers' expedition. The towering masts and billowing sails stand tall against an unforgiving backdrop of ice and frigid waters. It serves as a poignant reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit for knowledge and discovery, even at great cost. Today, this artwork stands as a testament to bravery and sacrifice while also serving as a haunting reminder of those who lost their lives in search of new frontiers. It invites us to reflect on our own thirst for exploration and reminds us that sometimes it is not only success but also failure that shapes our understanding of the world around us.
