23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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
Amidst the harsh realities of the Western Front during World War I, moments of comfort and luxury were cherished by British soldiers. In this evocative photograph from 1918, three soldiers are seen taking a break from their duties, enjoying a steaming mug of Frys Pure Breakfast Cocoa. The rich, chocolatey aroma wafts through the air, offering a brief respite from the grim surroundings. Frys Pure Breakfast Cocoa, with its promise of a 'Pure and Hearty Start to the Day,' was a popular choice among the troops. Despite the challenges of delivering supplies to the frontlines, the cocoa was consistently available, making it a coveted luxury item. The soldiers, huddled around a makeshift table, share a moment of camaraderie as they savor each sip of the warm beverage. The simple pleasure of this simple moment is a poignant reminder of the human spirit's ability to find joy even in the most challenging of circumstances. As the war raged on, Frys Cocoa became a symbol of hope and comfort for the troops. The company's commitment to delivering their product to the frontlines, despite the logistical challenges, was a testament to their dedication to providing a small comfort to those who needed it most. This photograph captures a poignant moment in history, showcasing the resilience and determination of the British soldiers during World War I and the enduring appeal of a warm cup of cocoa.
