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
1. Title: "Avebury Stone Circle at Dawn: A Neolithic Enigma Veiled in Atmoshere" Amidst the tranquil, rolling hills of Wiltshire, England, the enigmatic silhouette of Avebury Stone Circle stands proudly against the backdrop of an ethereal dawn sky. This evocative image, captured by Historic England Photo Library (J900435), transports us back in time to the Neolithic Age, a period shrouded in mystery and wonder. The Avebury Stone Circle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is one of the most impressive prehistoric monuments in Europe. Dating back to around 2800 BC, this colossal enclosure is believed to have served various purposes - from religious and ceremonial to astronomical and defensive. The circle, which measures approximately 330 meters in diameter, is home to over 100 stones, some reaching heights of up to 5 meters. As the sun rises, the stones cast long, ominous shadows upon the dew-kissed grass, their dark forms starkly contrasting against the vibrant hues of the sky. The clouds, painted in shades of pink, orange, and gold, dance gracefully above, adding an otherworldly allure to the scene. The atmosphere is one of quiet reverence, inviting us to ponder the lives of those who came before us and marvel at the ingenuity and determination of our ancient ancestors. This hauntingly beautiful photograph is a testament to the enduring power of the Avebury Stone Circle and the profound impact it continues to have on our collective consciousness. It serves as a poignant reminder of our connection to the past and the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth.
