31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
The Reception of Lord Milner captures a historic moment in British history, as the distinguished statesman Alfred Milner returns to Southampton on May 24th, 1901. This photograph, taken by an English photographer from the 20th century, showcases the grandeur of this event. As Lord Milner steps onto the gangway with utmost grace and poise, he raises his top hat in acknowledgement of the roaring cheers emanating from the crowd on the jetty. The atmosphere is electric with excitement and admiration for this influential figure who served as High Commissioner for Southern Africa and Governor of Cape Colony during a crucial period. This image not only portrays a significant political leader disembarking from a ship but also symbolizes unity between government and its people. Lord Milner's gesture reflects his appreciation for their support while highlighting his own humility amidst all the adulation. The composition expertly captures every detail - from Lord Milner's impeccable attire to the expressions on both his face and those around him. It serves as a testament to early 20th-century photography techniques that immortalize such historical moments. Displayed prominently on The King magazine's front cover in June 1901, this print continues to captivate viewers even today. Its timeless quality transports us back to an era when leaders were revered, crowds cheered fervently, and photographs preserved these cherished memories.
