23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 from the Historic England Archive captures a poignant moment in aviation history. The image showcases Hurricane aircraft DP035688, gracefully soaring through the sky during its final flying display at RAF Coltishall in Scottow, Norfolk. RAF Coltishall was home to many of these iconic Hurricanes, and this lone aircraft takes center stage as it bids farewell during the closing ceremony. Against a backdrop of endless blue skies, it symbolizes both the triumphs and challenges faced by those who served in the Royal Air Force. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the sheer power and elegance of this legendary warplane. With its sleek design and mighty engine propelling it forward, one can almost hear the roar that once filled these historic airfields. As we gaze upon this remarkable sight, we are reminded of the courage and sacrifice exhibited by countless pilots who flew these magnificent machines during times of conflict. This image serves as a testament to their unwavering dedication to protect our skies. Preserved within this print is not just an airplane but also a piece of our collective heritage—a reminder of how far aviation has come since those early days when brave men took flight into uncertain horizons. Through images like these, Historic England Archive continues to preserve and share stories that shape our understanding of past events while inspiring future generations with tales from above the clouds.
