23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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
In this evocative photograph, the RAF Red Arrows formation team makes their grand entrance into RAF Binbrook in August 1982. The British Royal Air Force (RAF) aerobatics team, flying their BAe Systems Hawks, approaches the airfield in a breathtaking display of precision and skill. The Red Arrows, formed in 1965, are renowned for their dynamic and intricate aerial manoeuvres, and their arrival at Binbrook Airfield was an eagerly anticipated event for aviation enthusiasts and local residents alike. The team's distinctive red, white, and blue Hawks glint in the sun as they form up in a V-shaped formation, ready to put on a thrilling show for the crowds. The BAe Systems Hawk is a versatile and advanced jet trainer, which has been in service with the RAF since 1976. It was designed and manufactured by British Aerospace, now known as BAE Systems, and has been used by the Red Arrows since 1980. The Hawk's agility and manoeuvrability make it the perfect aircraft for the team's demanding displays. The photograph captures the excitement and anticipation of the Red Arrows' arrival at Binbrook Airfield, with the crowd gathered at the edge of the runway, cameras at the ready. The team's arrival marked the start of a series of aerial displays and practice sessions that would thrill and inspire generations of aviation enthusiasts. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of the RAF Red Arrows and the rich history of British aviation.
