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.

This aerial reconstruction painting by Ivan Lapper showcases the majestic Pendennis Castle in Falmouth, Cornwall. With meticulous attention to detail, Lapper brings to life the Tudor, Elizabethan, and later fortress as it stands proudly today.
Perched on a rugged cliff overlooking the shimmering waters of the English Channel, Pendennis Castle exudes an aura of strength and resilience. Its imposing stone walls rise high into the sky, reminding us of its historical significance as a formidable stronghold.

The aerial perspective allows us to appreciate the castle's strategic location and how it dominates both land and sea. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we are transported back in time to an era when castles were not only symbols of power but also vital defensive structures.
Pendennis Castle has witnessed centuries of history unfold within its sturdy walls. It has stood witness to sieges and battles during times of conflict while also serving as a residence for royalty during periods of peace.
Through Lapper's skillful brushstrokes, we are reminded of our rich heritage and encouraged to delve deeper into Cornwall's fascinating past. This artwork serves as a testament to our collective history—a visual reminder that these ancient fortresses continue to stand tall amidst modern landscapes.
