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 evocative photograph print depicts the dining area of Billets in Cromwell Gardens during World War I. The large, ornate room, adorned with a stunning decorated ceiling, was likely used as a mess hall for soldiers. The image features Private P.J. Hill, a member of the 20th Battalion, The County of London Regiment, who studied at the Lambeth School of Art located at St. Oswalds Place, Upper Kennington Lane in London. At the time of this photograph, Private Hill resided at 6 Amott Road, Peckham Rye. The 20th Battalion, also known as "F" Company, was part of the New Army raised in response to the outbreak of World War I in 1914. The battalion saw action on the Western Front, taking part in several major engagements including the Battle of Loos and the Battle of the Somme. The painting style and attention to detail in this photograph suggest that it may have been created as a topographical or historical record of the soldiers' living conditions during their time in the military. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a sense of the harsh realities and daily life of soldiers during the First World War. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by Private Hill and his comrades during their service to their country. It is a valuable historical document, offering insights into the experiences of soldiers during this pivotal period in world history.
