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
HMAS Sydney: A Pride of the New Royal Australian Navy in the 1910s This evocative photograph captures the HMAS Sydney, a Chatham Class Light Cruiser, as it sailed in a convoy during the early years of its service with the New Royal Australian Navy. Built between 1911 and 1913, the Sydney was one of the most advanced warships of its time, reflecting Australia's growing naval capabilities. The Sydney's sleek lines and imposing presence are on full display in this image, taken by the HMS Dublin in 1917. With its distinctive funnel and masts rising proudly from the water, the cruiser cuts through the waves with confidence and grace. The Australian flag flies boldly at the foremast, a symbol of national pride and determination. The HMAS Sydney played a crucial role in protecting Australian waters during World War I, serving on several convoy escorts and engaging in battles against German raiders. Its impressive speed and firepower made it a formidable force in the region, and it became a symbol of the growing strength and independence of the Australian Navy. This photograph is a testament to the rich naval history of Australia and the important role that the HMAS Sydney played in shaping it. With its proud past and enduring legacy, the Sydney remains an iconic symbol of Australia's maritime heritage and a source of inspiration for generations to come.
