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
In the historic halls of Newmarket Racecourse, the spirit of horse racing thrived even amidst the challenges of wartime Britain. Among the throngs of spectators, their breath held in anticipation, the tension in the air was palpable as the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes approached. The race, a significant event in the British racing calendar, was set to determine the best three-year-old colt for the upcoming season. The favorite, Garden Path, a brown filly owned by the esteemed Lord Derby and ridden by the skilled jockey Harry Wragg, stood poised at the starting gate. Her opponent, Major David Wills' Blue Peter colt, Growing Confidence, was a formidable adversary, eager to claim victory for himself. As the race commenced, the horses burst forth from the gate, their hooves thundering against the turf. Garden Path, with Wragg's expert guidance, quickly took the lead, her powerful strides propelling her forward. The crowd erupted in cheers as she maintained her position, her determination unwavering. Growing Confidence, though valiant, could not match Garden Path's speed and agility. The filly's victory was a testament to her natural talent and the dedication of her team. As she crossed the finish line, the triumphant scene was captured for posterity, a beacon of hope and resilience in the midst of war-time adversity. This evocative photograph, taken in 1944, serves as a reminder of the enduring allure and importance of horse racing in British culture. The image of Garden Path, a brown filly defying the odds and claiming victory in the Two Thousand Guineas Stakes, stands as a symbol of courage, perseverance, and the indomitable spirit of the sport.
