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.

Maintaining Lines of Communication: The Unseen Heroes of the Aisne Front during World War I (1918) This evocative photograph captures the relentless efforts of Allied forces to maintain the vital lines of communication along the Aisne Front during the final stages of World War I in 1918. The scene depicts a team of soldiers and laborers diligently working to repair a damaged section of road, ensuring the uninterrupted flow of supplies and reinforcements to the front lines. The Aisne Front, located in northern France, was a key battleground during the Great War, with both sides engaging in intense fighting from 1914 to 1918. The harsh terrain and constant shelling took a heavy toll on the infrastructure, making the maintenance of roads and other communication routes a crucial aspect of the war effort. Despite the devastation wrought by the conflict, these unseen heroes pressed on, working tirelessly to keep the vital arteries of logistics and transportation functioning. The ruins of a nearby village serve as a poignant reminder of the destruction wrought by the war, while the soldiers and laborers embody the resilience and determination required to overcome the challenges of the battlefield. This historical photograph offers a unique glimpse into the often overlooked aspects of the war, highlighting the importance of maintenance and logistics in the face of adversity. The image is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by all those involved in the conflict and the enduring spirit of human perseverance.
