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.

Homecoming - A Symbol of Hope and Resilience
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant photograph captured by Paul Thompson, we witness a powerful moment in history that encapsulates the essence of homecoming. The image portrays the majestic British liner RMS Mauretania, transformed into a troop ship during World War I, as it returns American servicemen from the war-torn shores of Europe circa 1918. The composition focuses on the lifeboat-filled deck of the liner, where rows upon rows of weary soldiers stand tall with an air of anticipation. Their faces bear witness to their shared experiences and hardships endured on foreign soil. Each man carries his own story etched deep within his eyes - stories filled with bravery, sacrifice, and camaraderie. As they approach their homeland's shores once again, these men embody resilience and hope for a brighter future after years spent far away from loved ones. The photo captures not only their physical return but also symbolizes a collective emotional journey back to safety and familiarity. Paul Thompson's choice to present this historical moment in portrait format enhances our connection with each soldier individually while emphasizing their unity as they embark on this long-awaited voyage home. It serves as a timeless reminder of the sacrifices made by countless individuals who fought valiantly for freedom during times of great turmoil. This remarkable print is more than just an image; it represents an enduring testament to human strength and resilience in the face of adversity—a tribute to those who served selflessly so that others may find peace
