Defence Earthwork Iron Age Landscape Rampart Rural
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 print by James O. Davies transports us to the ancient and awe-inspiring Maiden Castle in Dorset, England. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, our eyes are immediately drawn to the imposing ramparts that stretch out before us, standing as a testament to the ingenuity and strength of those who once inhabited this Iron Age hillfort. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this historic site, showcasing its rural setting against a backdrop of an expansive sky. The earthwork that forms the rampart is intricately detailed, revealing layers of history etched into its very foundations. It serves as a reminder of the defensive purpose it once served, protecting its inhabitants from potential threats. The landscape surrounding Maiden Castle is nothing short of breathtaking - rolling hills dotted with lush greenery create a picturesque scene that evokes both tranquility and curiosity about what lies beyond. This juxtaposition between defense and serenity adds depth to the photograph's narrative. James O. Davies has skillfully captured not only the physical attributes but also the intangible spirit embedded within these ancient walls. Through his lens, he invites us to reflect on our connection with history and marvel at how time has shaped our world. This print from Historic England serves as a window into another era - one filled with mystery and wonder - allowing us to appreciate both the architectural prowess of our ancestors and their harmonious relationship with nature's grandeur.
