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 photo print, titled "Painting the hull of a ship, 1937" takes us back to the bustling docks of Britain in the 1930s. The image showcases a group of dedicated sailors from the Royal Navy diligently maintaining their warship. With paintbrushes in hand, these men are meticulously painting every inch of the ship's hull. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this snapshot from history, emphasizing both the importance and scale of naval warfare during that era. It serves as a poignant reminder of how vital maintenance was for keeping these vessels seaworthy and ready for action. The composition highlights not only the physical labor involved but also captures a sense of camaraderie among these sailors. Their teamwork is evident as they work together towards a common goal – ensuring their ship remains in top condition. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can almost hear the sounds of waves crashing against the vessel's sides and feel an air of anticipation surrounding it. This image transports us to an era when ships were lifelines during times of war and symbolized national strength and pride. Through this remarkable print by Unknown (creator), we are granted a glimpse into an important chapter in British maritime history – one where ordinary men played extraordinary roles in safeguarding their nation's interests on treacherous waters.
