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 - King Edward VIII at the Rapids in Kyoto, Japan, back in 1922. Taken by an English photographer from the 20th century, this image is now part of a private collection. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see King Edward VIII proudly seated on a boat amidst the powerful rapids of Kyoto. The flag of Great Britain flutters majestically behind him as he waves to onlookers with regal grace. As the heir to the throne, his presence exudes royalty and authority. The composition beautifully juxtaposes elements of both British and Japanese culture. The traditional Japanese boat glides effortlessly through the rushing river while oarsmen navigate its course with precision. This harmonious blend symbolizes the strong bond between England and Japan during that era. This photograph not only showcases King Edward's adventurous spirit but also serves as a testament to his global influence. It offers us a glimpse into an era when rulers were revered figures who commanded respect across nations. Preserved for decades within The Stapleton Collection, this image continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Its historical significance is further enhanced by being featured in F. G. H Salusbury's book "George V and Edward VIII: A Royal Souvenir" published by The Daily Express in 1936. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece of photography from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to an enchanting moment where
