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
In this photograph titled "Paper Protection" captured by Charles H Hewitt, we are transported back in time to the iconic Wembley Stadium during the 1948 London Olympics. Amidst a torrential downpour, one of the spectators finds resourcefulness in an unexpected place. As rain cascades from above, threatening to dampen his enthusiasm for the event, our protagonist ingeniously shelters his cherished programme using a newspaper. With determination etched on his face, he clings onto both items tightly as if safeguarding precious memories that will be forever etched in history. This image serves as a poignant reminder of human resilience and adaptability even in adverse conditions. It encapsulates the spirit of those who braved inclement weather to witness sporting greatness unfold before their eyes. The contrast between the grandeur of Wembley Stadium and this seemingly ordinary act highlights how simple gestures can hold profound significance. Hewitt's masterful composition captures not only the physical protection but also evokes emotions associated with camaraderie and shared experiences. Through his lens, we glimpse into a moment frozen in time - a testament to unwavering dedication amidst challenging circumstances. "Paper Protection" is more than just an image; it is an invitation to reflect upon our own ability to find solace and strength when faced with adversity. It reminds us that sometimes all it takes is resourcefulness and determination to shield what matters most from life's storms.
