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.

In this photograph from the Hulton Archive, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history. The image showcases a foot soldier firing a hand cannon, believed to be the earliest form of handgun, circa 1350. The soldier stands tall and resolute, his helmet gleaming under the sunlight as he takes aim at an unseen target. Clad in sturdy armor that speaks of battles fought and won, he embodies both strength and determination. His grip on the hand cannon is firm yet steady, showcasing his expertise with this groundbreaking weapon. This snapshot freezes a crucial point in time when firearms were still in their infancy but held immense potential for revolutionizing warfare. It serves as a reminder of how far humanity has come in terms of weaponry and technology.
