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
Basking in the ethereal glow of a sunset sky, the Second Severn Crossing stands as a testament to human engineering and resilience. Captured in this stunning photograph by James O Davies, the M4 motorway bridge spans the River Severn, connecting South Wales and England. The dark, imposing structure is illuminated by the warm hues of the setting sun, casting long shadows over the tranquil waters below. The Second Severn Crossing, completed in 1996, replaced the original Severn Bridge and revolutionized transportation in the region. Its distinctive, sleek design and innovative construction techniques have made it a beloved landmark and a symbol of progress. As the sun begins to dip below the horizon, the sky transforms into a breathtaking canvas of pink, orange, and gold. The clouds, painted with the vibrant colors of the sunset, add an otherworldly quality to the scene. The bridge, bathed in the soft, diffused light, appears almost otherworldly itself, as if suspended between the earth and the heavens. This photograph captures the essence of the Second Severn Crossing at its most enchanting. It invites us to pause and reflect on the beauty of our surroundings, and to marvel at the ingenuity of the human spirit that built such a magnificent structure. Whether you're a local or a traveler passing through, this view is a reminder of the awe-inspiring power of nature and the enduring allure of the natural world.
