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.

View of the Rock from the sea, Gibraltar, 1895 - A Captivating Glimpse into a Disputed Land
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1895, offering a mesmerizing view of Gibraltar's iconic Rock as seen from the sea. The disputed piece of land sits on a narrow strait connecting the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea and is bordered by Spain to its north. The photograph was captured by W &s Ltd, featured in "Round the World in Pictures and Photographs: From London Bridge to Charing Cross via Yokohama and Chicago" published by George Newnes Ltd in London. This monochrome image beautifully showcases Britain's overseas territory with its rugged mountains dominating the landscape. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it transports us to an era when people would flock to Gibraltar's coastlines for leisurely beach outings. The presence of individuals adds depth and perspective against this breathtaking backdrop. Gibraltar holds immense historical significance due to its strategic location at the entrance of the Mediterranean. Its towering rock formation has witnessed countless battles throughout history. Today, it stands as a symbol of resilience and cultural diversity. This remarkable print not only captures nature's grandeur but also serves as a testament to human curiosity and exploration during that period. It allows us to appreciate both geographical features and British colonial heritage while contemplating how such disputed territories have shaped our world today.
