17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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
Conisbrough Castle, a magnificent medieval fortification nestled in the picturesque town of Conisbrough, South Yorkshire, England, dates back to the 11th century. This historic landmark was initially built by William de Warenne, the Earl of Surrey, following the Norman conquest of England in 1066. The castle's grandeur is evident in this image, captured in 1834. The castle's imposing structure stands proudly overlooking the River Don, its towering walls and turrets a testament to the architectural prowess of the time. The castle's keep, or central tower, dominates the scene, with its distinctive angled towers and crenellations adding to its formidable appearance. The castle's curtain walls, which encircle the keep and other structures, were designed to protect against potential invaders. The castle's history is rich and varied. It has served as a royal residence, a prison, and even a filming location for the iconic 1968 film "Where Eagles Dare." Today, it is a popular tourist destination and a reminder of England's rich medieval past. This stunning photograph, taken in 1834, provides a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of knights, castles, and grandeur. The castle's timeless beauty continues to captivate visitors and historians alike, making it a must-see destination for anyone with an interest in history and architecture.
