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 poignant image captures the moment of consolation between Acting Sergeant Herbert Gibson, MM, of the 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance, Royal Army Medical Corps, and a wounded soldier during the First World War. Born in September 1889, Gibson served bravely on the battlefields of Europe, providing medical aid to the injured and comfort to the dying. The photograph, taken during the war, shows Gibson tenderly placing a hand on the shoulder of the soldier, offering a word of encouragement or a moment of respite from the horrors of the battlefield. The soldier, with a bandaged head and weary expression, leans into the gesture, accepting the solace offered. The 1st Northumbrian Field Ambulance was part of the Royal Army Medical Corps, a vital component of the British military during the First World War. These medical units were responsible for providing emergency medical care to soldiers on the battlefield, often in the most challenging and dangerous conditions. Herbert Gibson's bravery and compassion were recognized with the Military Medal, a decoration awarded for acts of gallantry and devotion to duty in the face of the enemy. This image serves as a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the importance of compassion and care in times of crisis. The photograph is a poignant and moving testament to the sacrifices made by soldiers and medical personnel during the First World War, and a reminder of the enduring power of human connection and consolation in the face of adversity.
