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.

Capitals of the British Empire, 1937 - A Glimpse into a Bygone Era
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print by Charles E Turner takes us back to the year 1937, offering a visual journey through the chief cities and seats of government in various regions of the British Empire. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the essence of each capital city. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical piece, showcasing iconic landmarks and architectural marvels that symbolize power and authority. From Ottawa's majestic Parliament Hill in Canada to Pretoria's imposing Union Buildings in South Africa, every capital exudes its unique charm. The inclusion of heraldry and coat of arms adds an air of regality, representing each region's rich history and cultural heritage. Dublin's emblematic harp shines proudly alongside Belfast's symbolic ship while Australia proudly displays its national floral emblem on Canberra's coat of arms. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to a time when these capitals were at the heart of an expansive empire. It serves as a poignant reminder not only of Britain’s global influence but also highlights the diverse nations that formed part of this vast network. Charles E Turner masterfully encapsulates an era long gone but not forgotten with his artistic prowess. This print stands as a testament to both his talent and our collective past, allowing us to appreciate the grandeur and significance these capitals held within the British Empire during one pivotal moment in history.
