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.

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 showcases Lady Elizabeth Southerden Thompson's masterpiece, "The Colours: advance of the Scots Guards at the Alma". Painted in 1899, this oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 98x155.6 cm and is currently held in a private collection. Depicting a pivotal moment from the Battle of Alma during the Crimean War, this painting immortalizes Captain Lindsay (later Lord Wantage) of the Scots Fusilier Guards. In the face of a relentless Russian onslaught that had shattered the lines of the Royal Welch Fusiliers, Captain Lindsay stands tall and defiantly holds aloft his regimental colours – symbolizing unwavering bravery and determination. Notably, this historic battle saw British, French, and Turkish forces unite against their common enemy to defeat the Russians. The painting also highlights four Victoria Crosses won during this fierce encounter. Lady Thompson's attention to detail is evident as she captures every element with precision – from soldiers clad in their distinctive Scottish regalia to their iconic bearskin hats. The Union Jack flag flutters proudly amidst chaos and destruction, serving as a powerful symbol of unity among allies. "The Colours" serves as an enduring testament to courage, inspiration, and leadership displayed by these valiant soldiers on that fateful day. This remarkable piece continues to inspire generations with its portrayal of resilience in times of adversity. Image credit: www. bridgemanimages. com
