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 photograph showcases the Machine Gun Gatling-Colt, a historical milestone in the evolution of military armament. Manufactured in 1871, this 10-barrel Gatling gun is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the late 19th century. The image was captured at the Army Museum in Toledo, Spain, in the region of Castile-La Mancha. The Machine Gun Gatling-Colt, also known as the "Gatling Gun," was designed by Richard J. Gatling and was the first successful rapid-fire infantry weapon. It was unique due to its hand-cranked mechanism that allowed the gunner to maintain a steady rate of fire, making it a formidable force on the battlefield. The gun could fire up to 200 rounds per minute, significantly increasing the rate of fire compared to traditional muskets. The 10-barrel configuration of this Gatling gun is particularly noteworthy, as it allowed for a larger magazine capacity and increased firepower. The gun's intricate design, with its interconnected barrels, is a marvel of engineering and technology. This photograph offers a glimpse into the rich history of arming and armament, providing a window into the past and the technological advancements that shaped the world. The Machine Gun Gatling-Colt, a symbol of the past, continues to inspire awe and fascination, as it stands as a reminder of the ingenuity and determination of those who came before us.
