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
Legendary jazz icons Count Basie and Illinois Jacquet share a momentous encounter on stage at the Capital Radio Jazz Festival, held in London's Alexandra Palace in July 1979. In this photograph, we witness the meeting of two musical giants whose contributions to the genre are immeasurable. Jazz promoter Andy Hudson stands on the left, overseeing this historic rendezvous with admiration and anticipation. The image also captures Butch Miles, drummer for the Count Basie Orchestra, subtly adding rhythm to the background. The atmosphere is electric as these esteemed musicians engage in a conversation that transcends words. Dressed impeccably in suits and donning stylish spectacles, they exude elegance and sophistication befitting their status as jazz royalty. Count Basie's charismatic presence is matched by Illinois Jacquet's cool demeanor as they embrace warmly on stage. Their friendship shines through their genuine smiles and shared passion for music. As saxophone virtuoso Paul Kaufman accompanies them with his melodic tunes, it becomes evident that this meeting represents more than just an exchange between artists—it symbolizes a harmonious fusion of cultures from both sides of the Atlantic. This snapshot freezes a moment where time seems to stand still—a testament to the enduring power of jazz music and its ability to bring people together across borders. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend boundaries while fostering camaraderie among those who appreciate its beauty.
