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.

Whitby Abbey, North Yorkshire: A Medieval Gothic Masterpiece Reflected in Tranquil Waters This evocative early morning scene captures the haunting beauty of Whitby Abbey in North Yorkshire, England, as the sun rises over the tranquil fishpond. Photographed by Mike Hesketh-Roberts for Historic England, this image offers a rare glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when monks walked these hallowed halls and the abbey was a thriving center of religious devotion. The medieval Gothic architecture of Whitby Abbey is beautifully reflected in the still waters of the fishpond, creating a stunning mirror image that highlights the intricate details of the abbey's ancient stonework. The ruins of this once magnificent structure tell a story of faith, history, and survival, standing proudly on the East Cliff overlooking the North Sea. The abbey's rich history dates back to the 7th century when it was founded by Saint Hilda, a revered figure in English Christianity. Over the centuries, it has served as a burial place for Viking kings, a site of pilgrimage, and a symbol of English resistance during the Reformation. Today, it is a popular tourist destination and a reminder of the region's rich cultural heritage. As the sun rises over the abbey, the scene is bathed in a soft, ethereal light, casting long shadows and creating a sense of peace and contemplation. The reflection in the water adds an extra layer of depth and mystery, inviting us to explore the history and stories that lie within these ancient walls.
