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
Adrian Brunel: A Pioneering Figure in British Cinema during the 1940s Adrian Brunel (1892-1958), a prominent figure in the British film industry, is seen here on the set of 'The First of The Few,' a 1942 war film that paid tribute to the heroic pilots of the Royal Air Force. Brunel, an English film director and screenwriter, began his career during the silent movie era and made significant contributions to the industry throughout the 1940s. In this photograph, Brunel is shown assisting his friend and leading actor in the film, Leslie Howard. Brunel's role in 'The First of The Few' extended beyond that of a director, as he also served as a consultant during production. Dressed in a crisp shirt, jacket, and cravat, Brunel appears focused and attentive as he examines a prop with Gilbert Adams, the production manager, and a crew member. Brunel's glasses perch on the bridge of his nose, adding a scholarly air to his appearance. The scene takes place on the set, with various pieces of film equipment and props in the background. The atmosphere is one of intense concentration and purpose, as the team works to bring the story of RAF pilots to life on the silver screen. Brunel's career spanned several decades and included numerous film credits as both a director and screenwriter. His work during the 1940s, a period of significant change and innovation in the film industry, cemented his place in cinematic history. This photograph offers a glimpse into the behind-the-scenes world of film production during that era, with Brunel at the heart of the action.
