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 captures a remarkable moment in history as British troop carrier aircraft of the Royal Air Force (RAF) soar gracefully over the iconic Pyramids of Giza, Egypt. Taken by an English photographer in the 1930s, this image showcases the awe-inspiring sight of ancient wonders juxtaposed with modern military aviation. The biplanes, representing a significant era in aviation history, showcase both the power and elegance of flight. As they glide through the sky above the desert landscape, their presence evokes a sense of adventure and exploration. The Pyramids themselves stand tall and proud against the backdrop of clear blue skies. The Pyramid of Khafre is particularly prominent in this composition, its grandeur accentuated by these flying machines passing overhead. This photograph not only captures a unique perspective on one of humanity's greatest architectural achievements but also serves as a testament to Britain's historical involvement in Egypt during that time period. It symbolizes both cultural exchange and military prowess. Preserved within a private collection, this image offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on our shared human heritage while marveling at technological advancements that have shaped our world.
