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 print by Scottish artist Andrew McGeachy transports us back in time to the Montreux Grand Prix of 1934, an iconic motoring event that took place on the picturesque streets of Montreux, Switzerland, on 3rd June of that year. The image showcases the thrilling moment when Carlo Felice Trossi, an Italian racing driver, steers his Alfa Romeo (car number 6) in the lead, leaving a trail of dust and excitement in his wake. The Montreux Grand Prix was a significant event in the history of Formula One racing, with Trossi's victory marking a pivotal moment in Alfa Romeo's dominance in the sport. The bustling Cafe de l'Europe and the elegant Tonhalle can be seen in the background, adding to the vibrant atmosphere of the race. The Montreux Grand Prix of 1934 was a testament to the spirit of speed and competition that defined the 1930s, a decade marked by innovation and daring in the realm of motoring. McGeachy's painting masterfully captures the essence of this bygone era, inviting us to relive the excitement and glamour of a time when racing was an exhilarating and unforgettable experience.
