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 evocative photograph captures the essence of Reuben Davey, a brave and dedicated soldier of the 17th/21st Lancers cavalry regiment, as he proudly rides his horse on the parade ground during the 1930s. The 17th/21st Lancers, a distinguished British cavalry regiment formed in 1922, is represented by the regimental badge on Reuben's cap, which features a leopard's head and the Arabic numerals '17' and '21'. The soldier's uniform is adorned with various insignia, including the regimental crest and the campaign stars earned by the regiment during its illustrious history. Reuben's horse is outfitted with the regimental standard and a lance, which are held firmly in place by the soldier. The regiment's signature lance pennon, a white flag with a red cross, is visible at the horse's head. Reuben's sword, slung at his side, is a reminder of the regiment's tradition of close combat and the importance of the cavalry charge in military strategy. The 17th/21st Lancers, also known as the 'Queen's Bays', have a rich and storied history, having served in numerous campaigns and conflicts, including the Boer War, World War I, and World War II. Reuben Davey and his comrades were part of a long line of valiant soldiers who upheld the regiment's motto, 'Fortuna Audaces Iuvat' (Fortune Favors the Bold). This photograph is a poignant reminder of the courage and dedication of the soldiers who served in the 17th/21st Lancers and the important role they played in British military history.
