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 historical print captures the pivotal moment when General Charles Carmichael Monro was sent as a replacement to Sir Ian Hamilton in the Dardanelles campaign of October 1915. After a series of disastrous events, including heavy casualties and failed military strategies, Hamilton was recalled to England. It was then that Monro stepped in and recommended an immediate withdrawal from the Dardanelles.
His recommendation was met with agreement from Lord Kitchener, and thus began the evacuation process which would ultimately be carried out with practically no further casualties. This decision marked a turning point in the campaign, saving countless lives and preventing further loss on both sides.
The image of General Monro standing tall amidst this tumultuous period in history is one of great importance and significance. His leadership and strategic thinking played a crucial role in bringing about an end to the suffering endured by so many during this time.
As we reflect on this moment captured in black and white, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought bravely for their countries, as well as the critical decisions made by leaders like General Monro that shaped the course of history.
