31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 captures a timeless scene of rural tranquility. In the foreground, three horsemen elegantly ride past Patcham Windmill, which stands proudly on the picturesque Downs behind Brighton in East Sussex. The mill's towering presence adds a touch of grandeur to the idyllic countryside. Taken by renowned photographer Eric de Mare, known for his exceptional work between 1945 and 1980, this image showcases his keen eye for capturing both natural beauty and human activity. The composition perfectly balances the majestic windmill with the graceful movement of the horsemen, creating a harmonious blend of man-made structure and organic life. The simplicity of this photograph evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when horses were still an integral part of everyday life in rural communities. It transports us back to an era where time seemed to move at a slower pace, allowing people to appreciate their surroundings more fully. Eric de Mare's skillful use of light and shadow adds depth and texture to this stunning image. The softness in his approach enhances the peaceful atmosphere that envelops Patcham Windmill on that particular day. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Historic England's collection, we are reminded not only of our rich heritage but also how important it is to preserve these historic landmarks as they continue to shape our landscape today.
