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, we are transported back to January 1924, witnessing a historic moment in naval history. The majestic HMS Hood takes center stage as it anchors at Table Bay in Cape Town, South Africa. Standing proudly behind her is the formidable HMS Repulse, creating an awe-inspiring sight against the backdrop of the bay. This snapshot captures a significant event - the Special Service Squadron's world tour. As part of their mission to showcase British naval power and strengthen international relations, these mighty warships embarked on a journey that would leave an indelible mark on history. The sheer size and grandeur of both vessels are evident in this image. The sleek lines and towering masts of these battleships symbolize strength, resilience, and unwavering commitment to duty. It is impossible not to be impressed by their presence. Table Bay provides a picturesque setting for this remarkable display of maritime prowess. The calm waters mirror the ships' reflections while gently lapping against their hulls. Against the vast African landscape stretching into the distance, these warships serve as powerful symbols of Britain's global reach. Preserved through time by Topical Press Agency/Hulton Archive/Getty Images, this print serves as a reminder of an era when naval supremacy was paramount. It invites us to reflect upon the courage and dedication exhibited by those who served aboard these magnificent vessels during times of peace and conflict alike.
