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
1. Title: "A Winter's Embrace: Hadrian's Wall - Winshields Milecastle N980002" Amidst the tranquil, wintry landscape of Northumberland, the enduring legacy of Roman engineering stands proud against the elements. This evocative aerial reconstruction, captured by the skilled lens of Philip Corke, unveils the enchanting sight of Hadrian's Wall and its milecastle, N980002, enshrouded in a pristine blanket of snow. The Roman fortification, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, stretches over 73 miles from the Solway Firth to the North Sea, marking the northern boundary of the Roman Empire. This particular milecastle, Winshields, is one of the best-preserved examples, showcasing the remarkable craftsmanship and strategic planning of the ancient Romans. As winter's icy grip tightens, the landscape transforms into a breathtaking tableau. The snow-kissed ramparts, once a formidable barrier against invading forces, now stand as a testament to the enduring power of history. The milecastle's turreted towers, huddled together against the cold, evoke a sense of timelessness, transporting us back to a bygone era. The graphic winter scene, rendered in stark contrast against the clear blue sky, offers a unique perspective of this historical landmark. The snow's pristine whiteness highlights the intricate details of the milecastle's architecture, allowing us to appreciate its grandeur in a new light. This awe-inspiring image serves as a reminder of the rich history that lies hidden within our landscapes, waiting to be discovered and cherished. The winter's embrace of Hadrian's Wall and Winshields Milecastle N980002 only enhances their allure, inviting us to explore the stories they hold and the secrets they keep.
