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
This print captures a significant moment in history - Parisians watching a German aeroplane during the First World War in 1914. The image, taken from an illustration featured in The Great War HW Wilson, Vol I (London, 1914), transports us back to a time of turmoil and uncertainty. In this snapshot of life on the streets of Paris, we see a diverse crowd gathered together to witness this extraordinary sight. Men and women alike are transfixed by the presence of the German aircraft soaring through the sky above them. Their expressions range from awe to concern, reflecting the mix of emotions that must have been prevalent during such tumultuous times. The image offers us a glimpse into not only the impact of war on civilians but also their resilience and curiosity amidst adversity. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of conflict, humanity's innate fascination with innovation and progress persists. The monochrome aesthetic adds depth and intensity to the scene, emphasizing both its historical significance and timeless relevance. As we observe these Parisians standing side by side on this road or lane in France's capital city, we are reminded that war affects people from all walks of life regardless of gender or social status. This powerful photograph is an invaluable piece of visual documentation that allows us to connect with our shared past while contemplating how it has shaped our present world.
