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
The Temple of the Entente Cordiale: A Glimpse into History at the Franco-British Exhibition". This photograph takes us back in time to May 14th, 1908, when the magnificent Temple of the Entente Cordiale stood proudly at Shepherds Bush. The image, captured by Melton Prior, showcases a bird's eye view of this architectural marvel that was built for the Wonderful Franco-British Exhibition. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we are transported to an era where diplomacy and cultural exchange took center stage. The exhibition itself played a significant role in fostering friendship between France and Britain during a time marked by political tensions. The Temple of the Entente Cordiale stands tall amidst its surroundings with grandeur and elegance. Its intricate design reflects both French and British influences, symbolizing unity between these two nations. This temple served as a hub for various events during the exhibition, including those related to the 1908 Olympic Games. With its sprawling layout visible on this map-like print, one can imagine visitors strolling through its corridors adorned with beautiful artwork and exhibits showcasing advancements in technology, industry, artistry, and more. Today, this remarkable piece of history serves as a reminder of an era defined by collaboration rather than conflict. It is a testament to how culture can bridge divides and bring people together under one roof – or in this case – within one extraordinary temple.
