23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 pivotal moment in history - the infamous Charge of the Light Cavalry Brigade on October 25th, 1854. Engraved by E. Walker and published by Colnaghi & Co in 1855, this lithograph brings to life the chaotic scene of battle during the Crimean War. The artist, William Simpson, known as the first war artist, skillfully depicts the bravery and determination of these soldiers as they charge forward into enemy territory. The landscape surrounding them is vast and unforgiving, adding to the intensity of the moment. Led by Earl Cardigan, this ill-fated charge became synonymous with military heroism despite its tragic outcome. The horses gallop at full speed while their riders brandish swords high above their heads. The sheer energy and courage displayed in this image are truly awe-inspiring. As we gaze upon this historic artwork from a private collection, we are transported back in time to witness one of war's most iconic moments. It serves as a reminder of both the valor and sacrifice exhibited by those who fought for their countries during times of conflict. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate not only Simpson's artistic talent but also his ability to capture an important chapter in our shared human history.
