23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 photograph captures the historic moment when the wing of the Spirit of St. Louis was being prepared for transport from the Ryan Aeronautical Company in 1927. The Spirit of St. Louis, a symbol of American ingenuity and determination, played a crucial role in Charles Lindbergh's groundbreaking transatlantic flight. In this image, we see an early morning scene at the Ryan Aeronautical Company as workers diligently work on securing the massive wing onto a transportation vehicle. The attention to detail is evident as they meticulously handle every aspect of this delicate operation. The significance of this moment cannot be overstated. With its sleek exterior and advanced design, the Spirit of St. Louis represented cutting-edge technology that pushed boundaries in aviation science during that era. This aircraft would soon carry Lindbergh across the Atlantic Ocean on his daring solo flight, forever etching his name into history books. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back to a time when dreams took flight and ordinary individuals achieved extraordinary feats through hard work and unwavering dedication. It serves as a reminder that with determination and innovation, anything is possible - even reaching for the skies against all odds.
