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 takes us back in time to the historic moment when peace was finally achieved after the devastating World War I. The image showcases two trains, one representing the German delegation on the right and the other symbolizing the Allied delegations. These trains were stationed in a railway siding amidst the serene Compiegne Forest during three crucial days of armistice negotiations. On November 11th, 1918, inside Marshal Ferdinand Foch's railway carriage, located within one of these trains, an extraordinary event unfolded. It was here that Allied Commander-in-chief Marshal Ferdinand Foch and Matthias Erzberger of Germany signed the Armistice with Germany agreement. This monumental act marked not only an end to years of bloodshed but also laid down a foundation for future peace. The composition beautifully captures this significant historical moment against a backdrop of towering trees and railroad tracks. The juxtaposition between nature's tranquility and mankind's struggle is palpable in this powerful photograph. Preserved by Hulton Archive/Getty Images, this remarkable piece serves as a poignant reminder of humanity's ability to reconcile even amidst great adversity. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to that fateful day when hope triumphed over despair - forever etching its mark on history.
