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
Trivia, a 12 Metre class yacht sails close-hauled, 1939. This print captures the elegance and grace of Trivia, a remarkable sailing yacht designed by Charles Nicholson for Vernon W. MacAndrew in the late 1930s. With her sleek lines and Bermuda rigging, Trivia effortlessly cuts through the water off the coast of Cowes, Isle of Wight. The skilled craftsmanship of Kirk & Sons is evident in every detail of this magnificent vessel as she showcases her prowess on the open sea. In 1937, during her first season, Trivia achieved an impressive victory by securing first place in her class. This triumph solidified her reputation as one of the finest yachts to compete under the International Rule at that time. The photo perfectly captures Trivia's close-hauled position - sails tautly filled with wind as she navigates against it with precision and finesse. It reflects not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an era when sailing was both a sport and a symbol of opulence. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece today, we are transported back to an enchanting period where passion for yachting intertwined with artistry and engineering excellence. Let this image serve as a reminder that even amidst turbulent times like those faced in the thirties, beauty can still be found on serene waters.
