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 the essence of history at Birdoswald Roman Fort, nestled in the picturesque region of Cumbria. Standing proudly along Hadrian's Wall, this ancient fort has withstood the test of time and remains a testament to Roman engineering and military prowess.
The image showcases the South Gate, offering a glimpse into the past as we peer through its arches towards the Visitors Centre. The stone walls stand tall and weathered, bearing witness to centuries of stories that unfolded within these very grounds. As sunlight gently bathes the scene, casting shadows upon each intricate detail, one cannot help but be transported back in time.
Graeme Peacock's expert photography skillfully captures not only the architectural beauty but also evokes a sense of wonder and curiosity about what life must have been like for those who once called this fort home. The composition invites us to imagine soldiers marching through these gates or perhaps hear echoes of their conversations drifting on long-forgotten winds.
Historic England's preservation efforts are evident in every aspect of this photograph – from ensuring that Birdoswald Roman Fort stands strong today to Graeme Peacock's ability to immortalize its grandeur through his lens. This image serves as a reminder that our heritage is worth cherishing and protecting for future generations.
As we gaze upon this remarkable print, let us reflect on how far we have come while acknowledging our debt to those who came before us. May it inspire all who view it to delve deeper into history's mysteries and appreciate the rich tapestry woven by civilizations long gone.
