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 showcases the remarkable Roman signal station nestled within the majestic Scarborough Castle in North Yorkshire. The image, captured by Historic England Photo Library, transports us back in time to an era of ancient coastal defense and communication. The photograph reveals the well-preserved ditch and outline of the Roman signal station, serving as a testament to its historical significance. These foundations also bear witness to later chapels that were constructed on this site, adding layers of religious heritage to this already fascinating location. Scarborough Castle's strategic position overlooking the coast made it an ideal spot for Romans to establish their signaling system. From here, they could relay important messages across vast distances using various visual signals such as flags or torches. This ingenious network allowed them to communicate swiftly and effectively throughout their empire. As we gaze upon this evocative image, we are reminded of the enduring legacy left behind by these ancient civilizations. The ruins stand tall against the backdrop of a picturesque coastline, reminding us not only of Scarborough Castle's rich history but also its natural beauty. Through photographs like these from Historic England Photo Library, we are able to appreciate and preserve our cultural heritage for future generations. They serve as windows into our past while igniting curiosity about those who came before us and their contributions to shaping our world today.
