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 image captures a pivotal moment in British history as Queen Elizabeth I (1533-1603) goes aboard the renowned explorer Sir Francis Drake's (1540-1596) ship, the Golden Hind, moored at Deptford in 1581. The Queen, dressed in her regal finery, is greeted by Drake as he offers her a hand to step aboard. The Golden Hind, which had recently returned from a successful circumnavigation of the globe, was an icon of English maritime prowess and a symbol of the growing power and influence of Elizabethan England. The Queen's visit to the ship was a significant event, as she bestowed upon Drake the knighthood he had earned through his daring voyages and victories against Spanish forces. The ceremony took place on board the Golden Hind, which was then decorated with colorful banners and pennants to mark the occasion. The image of the Queen boarding the ship was a powerful statement of her support for her seafarers and her determination to defend England against foreign threats. This photograph, taken from a print by the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and pageantry of the Elizabethan era, as well as the close relationship between the monarch and her naval heroes. The Golden Hind, with its distinctive figurehead and intricately carved decorations, stands as a testament to the ingenuity and skill of English shipbuilders and sailors, and to the enduring legacy of Sir Francis Drake as a national hero.
