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
Helmuth Karl Bernard von Moltke, one of the most influential military figures in European history, is depicted in this striking photograph. Born on October 26, 1800, in Potsdam, Prussia, Moltke rose to prominence as a military strategist and served as the Chief of the General Staff of the Prussian Army from 1857 to 1888. His innovative military tactics and strategic planning played a significant role in the Prussian victories during the Danish Wars, the Austro-Prussian War, and the Franco-Prussian War. Moltke's military career began in 1816 when he joined the Prussian army as a second lieutenant. He quickly distinguished himself in the field, and by the time he reached the rank of major general in 1854, he had already gained a reputation as a brilliant military mind. Moltke's tenure as Chief of the General Staff saw the implementation of his "Schlieffen Plan," which aimed to avoid a two-front war by invading France through Belgium. Although the plan was ultimately unsuccessful during World War I, it remains a significant military strategy in military history. This photograph captures Moltke in his later years, with a stern expression and wearing the distinctive helmet of his rank as a general. His piercing gaze and furrowed brow convey a sense of intense focus and determination, reflecting his unwavering commitment to his military duties. The photograph serves as a testament to Moltke's legacy as a military genius and a pivotal figure in European history. Dating back to the late 19th century, this image is a valuable historical document that offers a glimpse into the life of one of the most influential military leaders of all time.
