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 view of Dover Castle, captured by talented photographer Damian Grady, transports us back in time to the medieval era. Standing proudly on the cliffs of Kent, this iconic fortress has witnessed centuries of history and played a crucial role in England's defense. The photograph showcases the inner bailey and keep from a unique perspective, highlighting their impressive architectural design and strategic positioning. The imposing walls enclose a vast courtyard that once bustled with activity, serving as both a military stronghold and royal residence. Dover Castle's significance as a fortification cannot be overstated. Its strategic location overlooking the English Channel made it an essential defensive structure throughout history. From repelling Viking invasions to thwarting Napoleon's ambitions, this formidable castle has stood as an unwavering guardian against potential threats. As we gaze at this remarkable image, we can almost hear echoes of knights clashing swords and feel the weight of history upon our shoulders. It serves as a poignant reminder of England's rich heritage and the resilience of its people. Damian Grady's skillful composition captures not only the grandeur but also the timeless allure of Dover Castle.
