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 aerial shot captures the majestic Camber Castle, a formidable Tudor fortress nestled in Rye, East Sussex. Built during the reign of Henry VIII as a strategic defense against potential invasions, this historic device fort served to safeguard not only the bustling port of Rye but also the nearby harbour at Winchelsea and the vital Camber anchorage. Once perched on a headland overlooking these crucial waterways, time and nature have conspired to shift its location inland due to relentless silting. Nevertheless, its imposing presence remains undiminished. Renowned photographer Damian Grady skillfully brings out every intricate detail of this architectural marvel through his lens. The print showcases the castle's robust artillery towers and sturdy walls that once housed powerful cannons ready for battle. Its rich history is palpable in every stone and brick that make up this magnificent structure. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time to an era where castles stood as symbols of strength and resilience. This photograph serves as a testament to both our enduring fascination with Tudor architecture and our collective desire to preserve our heritage for future generations. Let us cherish such remarkable snapshots that allow us to appreciate not just their aesthetic beauty but also their historical significance - reminding us of how far we've come while honoring those who came before us.
