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.

The artwork, displayed at Apsley House in London, transports us back to the Victorian era and offers a glimpse into the profound impact of the Battle of Trafalgar. In this masterpiece, Burnet skillfully depicts a group of Greenwich Pensioners gathered together to honor their fallen comrades. Their weathered faces tell stories of bravery and sacrifice as they pay tribute to Admiral Lord Nelson's victory over the French and Spanish fleets during this historic naval battle. The attention to detail in this painting is truly awe-inspiring. Each stroke of Burnet's brush brings life to these pensioners, capturing their emotions and unwavering loyalty towards their country. Through his artistry, he immortalizes not only the heroes who fought valiantly but also highlights the enduring spirit that binds them together.
