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.

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
Captain E.N. Frankland Bell, VC: A Hero of the Battle of the Somme This evocative photograph captures the stoic and resolute gaze of Captain E.N. Frankland Bell, Victoria Cross recipient of the 9th Battalion Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers. Taken during the fateful day of the Battle of the Somme on 1st July 1916 at Thiepval, France, this image immortalizes a moment in time that forever changed the course of World War I history. Born on 15th April 1886 in County Armagh, Northern Ireland, Frankland Bell enlisted in the British Army in 1903, joining the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers. His exceptional leadership and courage were quickly recognized, and he rose through the ranks to become a Captain by the outbreak of World War I. On 1st July 1916, during the Battle of the Somme, the 9th Battalion Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers faced heavy enemy fire near Thiepval. Amidst the chaos and carnage, Frankland Bell led his men with unwavering determination, repeatedly exposing himself to enemy fire to encourage his soldiers and direct their efforts. As the battle raged on, Frankland Bell single-handedly captured a German machine gun post, eliminating its crew and securing a vital position for his battalion. His extraordinary acts of bravery earned him the Victoria Cross, the highest military decoration for valor in the British and Commonwealth armed forces. This powerful photograph, taken by renowned war photographer Stanley Llewellyn Wood, stands as a testament to Frankland Bell's unyielding courage and leadership during one of the most significant battles in World War I history. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers like Frankland Bell, who put their lives on the line to defend their country and protect the freedoms we cherish today.
