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 historic photograph captures a momentous gathering at Muswell Manor, Shellbeach, on the Isle of Sheppy, UK, on 4th May 1909. The occasion was the visit of the Founding Pioneers of Aviation, who had come together to witness the pioneering flights of the Wright Brothers, Orville and Wilbur. Standing in the back row from left to right are J.D. Andrews, the owner of Muswell Manor; Oswald Short; Horace Short; Eustace Short; Sir Francis F.K. McClean, smoking a pipe; Griffith Brewer; Frank Hedges Butler; and Dr. W.J.S. Lockyer. In the front row, seated from left to right, are J.TC Moore-Brabazon, Wilbur Wright, Orville Wright, and Hon. Charles Rolls. This assemblage of aviation pioneers represents a significant milestone in the early history of flight. The Wright Brothers had made their first powered flight in 1903, and their groundbreaking invention had captured the imagination of the world. By 1909, they had come to Europe to demonstrate their aircraft to a wider audience. Muswell Manor, with its expansive grounds and proximity to the coast, provided an ideal location for their demonstrations. This photograph is a testament to the excitement and curiosity that surrounded the early days of aviation. The pioneers in this image were not only witnesses to history but also contributors to the development of this new and revolutionary technology. Their gathering at Muswell Manor marks an important chapter in the annals of aviation history.
