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 from c1941, we are transported back to the scorching desert near Tobruk, Libya during World War II. The image showcases a group of British or South African soldiers standing outside of a bunker, their uniforms blending seamlessly with the sandy landscape. The sepia tones add an air of nostalgia and timelessness to the scene, as if freezing a moment in history that will forever be etched in our collective memory. These brave men stand tall amidst the harsh conditions, their faces displaying determination and resilience. As allies fighting against Axis forces in North Africa, these troops played a crucial role in securing strategic locations such as Tobruk. The bunker behind them serves as both protection and reminder of the constant danger they faced on the frontlines. This photograph by Granger Art on Demand captures not only the physicality of war but also hints at the camaraderie shared between these soldiers. Their unity is palpable as they gather together under an unforgiving sun. It is through images like these that we gain glimpses into history's most tumultuous times and pay tribute to those who sacrificed so much for freedom. This print serves as a poignant reminder of their bravery and unwavering spirit amidst adversity.
