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 to the tumultuous era of the Crimean War in June 1855. On board the troop ship Carmel, French soldiers and their precious cargo of livestock are captured in this historic moment. The image, originally published in the Illustrated Times on 16th June 1855, showcases a scene that epitomizes both the hardships and resourcefulness of war. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see brave French soldiers standing tall amidst a sea of animals. Horses and sheep huddle together as they embark on a journey filled with uncertainty. The expressions on the faces of these men tell tales of courage mixed with weariness, highlighting their dedication to duty even under challenging circumstances. The composition's monochromatic palette adds an air of nostalgia, emphasizing the historical significance embedded within each detail. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of not only the human cost but also the logistical challenges faced during wartime. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Hulton Archive/Getty Images, we are transported back to an era where conflict was rife and military operations were carried out against formidable odds. It is through images like these that we gain insight into our shared history while honoring those who have sacrificed so much for their countries' causes.
