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.

Goodbye! The 3rd Battalion Grenadier Guards Leaving Waterloo Station, October 21st, 1899
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant chromolithograph depicting a significant moment in British military history. This image, published by the "Girl's Own Paper" in October 1900, was created as a tribute to the brave soldiers of the 3rd Battalion Grenadier Guards who were embarking on their journey to South Africa to participate in the Second Boer War. The scene captures the emotional farewell between the soldiers and their loved ones as they prepare to board the train at Waterloo Station in London. The Grenadier Guards, dressed in their iconic red coats and bearskins, can be seen standing in formation, their faces a mix of determination and sadness. Among them, a young boy reaches out to touch the hand of a guardsman, his eyes filled with tears, while an older woman clings to her husband's uniform, her face etched with worry. The image is based on a painting by George Harcourt, a renowned British artist, and was produced using the chromolithograph technique, which allowed for vibrant and detailed color reproductions. The use of this technique adds to the vividness of the scene, making it a powerful visual representation of the sacrifices made by the soldiers and their families during wartime. This print serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of war and the emotional toll it takes on families and communities. The image of the Grenadier Guards leaving Waterloo Station in 1899 is a testament to the bravery and resilience of the British military and the enduring bond between soldiers and their loved ones.
