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 this evocative photograph, taken in 1915, we see First Sea Lord John Arbuthnot Fisher (1841-1920) deep in conversation with George Lambert, Member of Parliament, as they stroll along a cobblestone path. The image captures a moment of intense focus and strategic planning between two influential figures in British naval history. John Arbuthnot Fisher, a towering figure in the Royal Navy, had already made a significant mark on the naval world, having served as First Sea Lord since 1910. Fisher's innovative ideas, including the Dreadnought-class battleships and the development of the submarine fleet, revolutionized the British naval forces and shaped the course of naval warfare. George Lambert, a prominent Liberal Party politician, was a key figure in the British government during World War I. His presence in this photograph suggests that the two men may be discussing naval operations or strategic planning for the ongoing conflict. However, the casual setting of their conversation, with no apparent military paraphernalia in sight, raises the intriguing possibility that they could be discussing something as seemingly mundane as lunch plans. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the exact nature of their conversation, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the dynamic between two influential figures during a pivotal moment in British history. The image underscores the importance of diplomacy and collaboration in shaping the course of war and the role of the First Sea Lord in leading the Royal Navy. This photograph, taken in 1915, is a poignant reminder of the complexities of wartime decision-making and the enduring influence of the British naval tradition. It is a testament to the rich history of naval leadership and the strategic partnerships that shaped the course of the 20th century.
