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 the haunting aftermath of an air raid that struck St Thomas Hospital in London during World War II. Taken in May 1941, the image showcases the devastating destruction caused by the bomb, with remnants of damaged walls and debris scattered across the site. Standing tall amidst this chaos is a symbol of resilience - Big Ben and the Palace of Westminster can be seen across the serene waters of Thames. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the hardships faced by Londoners on their home front during wartime. It encapsulates both loss and hope, as nature's resilience is highlighted by a solitary tree standing amidst ruins. The archival quality adds depth to this historical moment frozen in time. Fox Photos has expertly captured not just a scene but also emotions through this horizontal composition devoid of people. The famous landmarks juxtaposed against devastation evoke feelings of unity and determination among citizens who endured such trials together. This print from Fine Art Storehouse transports viewers back to a significant chapter in history, urging us to remember those who lived through these dark times while appreciating our present-day peace. It stands as a testament to human strength amid adversity, making it an ideal addition for any art enthusiast or history lover's collection.
