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
Blenheim Palace, a grandiose 18th-century architectural masterpiece nestled in the heart of Woodstock, Oxfordshire, is depicted in this photograph taken by Henry Taunt in 1912. The image showcases the south front of the palace, with its central portico standing proudly against the backdrop of a serene landscape. The portico, supported by elegant columns, serves as the focal point of the composition, drawing the eye towards the magnificent structure. The meticulously manicured lawn in the foreground adds to the sense of grandeur and tranquility, providing a perfect contrast to the grandeur of the palace. Henry Taunt, a renowned photographer of the early 20th century, captured this image during a time when Blenheim Palace was at the height of its glory. The palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was built between 1705 and 1722 and is renowned for its Baroque style and intricate detailing. It was commissioned by Queen Anne as a reward for John Churchill, the 1st Duke of Marlborough, for his victory at the Battle of Blenheim in 1704. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of opulence and grandeur. The intricate details of the palace's architecture, the lush greenery of the lawn, and the peaceful surroundings all come together to create a breathtaking image that is as timeless as the palace itself.
