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 photograph showcases an impressive collection of the Crowns of Britain, each holding a significant historical and regal significance. The image begins with the Imperial State Crown, which holds pride of place at the top. This magnificent crown, adorned with precious stones and intricate designs, has been used in the coronation of British monarchs since King George II in 1727. Moving down the line, we come across the various other crowns that have graced the heads of British monarchs throughout history. One of the most notable is St. Edward's Crown, which is depicted at the bottom right corner of the image. This ancient crown, first worn by King Charles II in 1661, has been used in every coronation except for that of Queen Victoria in 1838, who opted to use only the Imperial State Crown. The regal allure of these crowns is palpable, each one a testament to the rich history and tradition of the British monarchy. From the simple yet elegant designs to the opulent and ornate, these crowns have been a symbol of power, authority, and sovereignty for over a thousand years. The photograph, taken in 1953, captures the essence of the grandeur and majesty of the British monarchy during the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The image is a reminder of the enduring legacy of the British monarchy and the significance of the crowns that have been passed down through generations.
