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.

Up, Guards, and at them!
EDITORS COMMENTS
roars the Duke of Wellington, leading his Foot Guards into the fray at the Battle of Waterloo on June 18, 1815. This vivid oleolithograph, published as a supplement to the Christmas Number of the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News in 1899, captures the intensity and courage of the British soldiers as they charge against the French army under Napoleon Bonaparte. The Duke of Wellington, Arthur Wellesley, born in 1769, had led the British and allied forces to a decisive victory against the French at the Battle of Waterloo, marking the end of the Napoleonic Wars. In this image, we see him in the thick of the action, wearing his iconic red military coat and tricorn hat, inspiring his troops with his commanding presence. The Foot Guards, dressed in their distinctive bearskin hats and red uniforms, follow their leader with determination and discipline. Their muskets are at the ready as they advance towards the enemy lines. The chaos and danger of the battlefield are palpable in the background, with smoke rising from the guns and the clashing of swords and drums filling the air. This historical artwork, created by the renowned English painter Richard Caton Woodville, is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the Foot Guards during the Battle of Waterloo. It is a powerful reminder of the pivotal role they played in shaping the course of European history.
