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
This aerial view of Carlisle Castle takes us back to 1992, offering a unique perspective on this magnificent fortification in Cumbria. The expertly crafted reconstruction drawing by Terry Ball from the English Heritage Graphics Team brings the castle's rich history to life through intricate details and meticulous accuracy. Perched majestically atop a hill, Carlisle Castle stands as an enduring symbol of strength and resilience. Its imposing stone walls and towers tell tales of battles fought and conquered throughout centuries past. From its vantage point, one can almost imagine the strategic significance this fortress held in protecting England's borders against invasions from Scotland. The graphic representation allows us to appreciate the castle's layout, showcasing its inner courtyards, keep, and defensive structures that once housed soldiers ready for duty. It is fascinating how each architectural element intertwines with another, forming a complex web of protection that has stood the test of time. As we gaze upon this print from Historic England Photo Library, we are transported back in time; our imagination fills with echoes of clashing swords and resounding footsteps within these ancient walls. This image serves as a reminder not only of the historical importance but also of the remarkable craftsmanship that went into constructing such formidable fortifications. Carlisle Castle continues to stand proudly today as both a testament to human ingenuity and an emblematic landmark representing Cumbria's heritage.
