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 image from the 1990s, members of the London Fire Brigade's Fire Investigation Unit are seen diligently working to determine the cause of a fire that recently engulfed London's iconic Hilton Hotel. The photograph captures the crew in the street, surrounded by their specialized equipment and vehicles, as they continue their investigation inside the hotel. The London Fire and Civil Defence Authority's (LFDCA) Fire Investigation Unit played a crucial role in attending both large and small fires across the city. Their specially trained crew was dedicated to seeking the origin of fires whenever possible, providing essential information to prevent future incidents and ensure the safety of the public. In this particular instance, the fire at the Hilton Hotel had likely caused significant damage to the modern, multi-story building. The fire brigade's appliances and vehicles, including engines and carriers, are parked in the lane, ready to be deployed if needed. The team's focus is on the hotel, where they meticulously examine the scene, collecting evidence and collaborating to piece together the events that led to the blaze. The 1990s, a time of transformation in London, saw numerous changes in the city's landscape. This photograph serves as a reminder of the vital role the Fire Investigation Unit played in maintaining safety and order amidst the urban evolution. The crew's unwavering dedication and expertise were essential in understanding the causes of fires and preventing future incidents.
