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
This striking portrait captures King George VI (1895-1952) in his coronation robes, painted by Albert Collings in 1937. The monarch, who ascended to the throne following the abdication of his brother, King Edward VIII, is depicted wearing the traditional regalia of the British monarchy. The intricately designed mantle and ermine cloak, adorned with jewels and gold embroidery, symbolize the sovereign's power and authority. Originally painted for the coronation of King Edward VIII, Collings made an adjustment to the portrait after Edward's abdication, replacing his brother's face with that of King George VI. The artist was compensated an additional 21 for this alteration. The original version of the portrait, featuring King Edward VIII, can be found in picture number 10224207. King George VI's coronation took place on May 12, 1937, at Westminster Abbey, marking the beginning of his reign. This portrait, with its rich details and regal presence, serves as a testament to the historical significance of the event and the enduring symbolism of the British monarchy's regalia.
