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 striking image captures the moment of honor and recognition bestowed upon the legendary British naval hero, Horatio Nelson, at a grand banquet in 1803. The painting, titled "Nelson Honoured," was created by the renowned American artist Benjamin West. The scene unfolds in an opulent setting, with a grand table adorned with fine china, crystal glasses, and silverware. Nelson, dressed in his full admiral's uniform, stands proudly, his gaze fixed on the artist, Benjamin West, who extends a drink towards him in a gesture of respect and admiration. The room is filled with distinguished guests, all looking on in awe of the great naval commander. The year was 1803, and Nelson had just returned from the Battle of Copenhagen, where he had successfully prevented the Danish navy from joining the French forces in the Napoleonic Wars. His victory was a significant turning point in the war, and his reputation as a brilliant military strategist and fearless leader had reached new heights. The painting captures the essence of the moment, with Nelson's unwavering confidence and West's skillful portrayal of the artist's admiration for the great man. The historical significance of the scene is further emphasized by the intricate details of the setting and the meticulously rendered costumes and facial expressions of the guests. This image is a testament to the enduring legacy of Horatio Nelson and the profound impact he had on British history. It is a powerful reminder of the courage, determination, and leadership that defined his life and career, and a testament to the artistic skill of Benjamin West in capturing the essence of a moment in history.
