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
In this photograph, taken in August 1909, King Edward VII of Britain and Tsar Nicholas II of Russia are seen enjoying a leisurely moment with their respective families at Barton Manor on the Isle of Wight. The scene exudes an air of affability and camaraderie, as the two monarchs, dressed in casual attire, engage in conversation with each other, while their wives, Queen Alexandra of Britain and the Tsarina Alexandra of Russia, look on with smiles. The backdrop of Barton Manor, a stunning country estate located on the picturesque Isle of Wight, adds to the idyllic atmosphere of the image. The lush greenery and tranquil surroundings provide a stark contrast to the political tensions that were simmering between their two countries at the time. King Edward VII, who had ascended to the throne in 1901, was known for his love of hospitality and his ability to bring people together. The visit of the Russian royal family to Britain was a testament to his diplomatic skills and his commitment to maintaining good relations with other European powers. Tsar Nicholas II, who ruled Russia from 1894 until his abdication in 1917, was also depicted as a loving family man. In this photograph, he is seen with his wife and their five children, including the future Tsarina Anastasia, who would tragically be one of the victims of the Russian Revolution. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the personal lives of two monarchs and their families, providing a fascinating window into the history of royalty and diplomacy in early 20th century Europe. The warm and inviting atmosphere captured in the image stands in stark contrast to the political instability and upheaval that would soon engulf both Britain and Russia, making it a poignant reminder of a bygone era.
