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
In the heart of Kent, England, stands the majestic Rochester Castle, a Norman architectural marvel that has withstood the test of time. This photograph, taken by Paul Highnam for Historic England, offers a unique perspective of the castle through the trees from within the inner bailey. The image showcases the castle's impressive towers and fortified walls, shrouded in the dappled light filtering through the foliage. The trees, in their full autumn glory, add an element of serenity and beauty to the otherwise imposing structure. The castle's moat, reflecting the blue sky and the golden leaves, adds to the scene's tranquility. Rochester Castle, built in the late 11th century, is an iconic symbol of England's rich history. It has served various purposes over the centuries, including a royal palace, a prison, and even a munitions store during World War II. The castle's impressive keep, standing at over 100 feet tall, is one of the tallest in the country and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. The photograph captures the essence of the castle's grandeur and the harmony between nature and architecture. The trees, with their vibrant colors, frame the castle, highlighting its imposing presence while adding a sense of peace and tranquility. The image is a testament to the beauty and history of Rochester Castle and the importance of preserving such architectural treasures for future generations to appreciate. Paul Highnam's photograph is a stunning representation of the castle's timeless beauty and the harmony between nature and history. It invites viewers to imagine the stories that the castle holds within its walls and the role it has played in shaping England's history.
