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
Step into the enchanting world of medieval England with this stunning interior view of The Solar at Stokesay Castle, captured beautifully by James O. Davies in this historic photograph from Historic England. The Solar, once the most luxurious room in the castle, is a testament to the opulence and grandeur of the past. The room is adorned with richly stained wooden panelling, each plank meticulously carved and polished to a mirror-like sheen. The intricate patterns and designs on the panelling speak of the craftsmanship and artistry of the medieval artisans. The warm, golden hue of the wood adds a sense of coziness and comfort, making it an inviting space even in the harshest of winters. At the heart of the room lies the magnificent fireplace, a grand and imposing structure of Stuart-era design. The overmantel above the fireplace is a masterpiece in itself, with intricate carvings and motifs that depict scenes from mythology and folklore. The fireplace, once the source of heat and light in the room, now serves as a reminder of the simpler pleasures of life. The Solar at Stokesay Castle is a window into the past, a glimpse into the lives of the medieval nobility. It is a reminder of a time when life moved at a slower pace, when art and beauty were valued above all else. This photograph by James O. Davies is not just a record of history, but a work of art in its own right, capturing the essence of a bygone era and transporting us to a time when life was simpler, yet infinitely more beautiful.
