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 chaos and desperation of the Great Fire of London in September 1666. As flames engulf buildings in the background, a row of boats on the River Thames becomes a lifeline for those fleeing the devastation. Men and women scramble onto vessels, their faces etched with fear and uncertainty.
The image is a snapshot of history, transporting us back to a time when fire ravaged the city and its inhabitants were forced to make split-second decisions for survival. The contrast between the calm waters of the river and the raging inferno behind them is stark, highlighting the urgency of escape.
In this moment frozen in time by Hulton Archive, we witness ordinary people facing extraordinary circumstances. The men work frantically to push off from shore while women clutch children tightly to their chests, seeking safety on board. It's a scene that speaks volumes about human resilience in times of crisis.
As we gaze upon this powerful photograph, we are reminded of both the fragility of life and our capacity for courage in adversity. The Great Fire may have left scars on London's landscape, but it also revealed the strength and solidarity of its people as they banded together to overcome tragedy.
