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
VE Day at Buckingham Palace: A Moment of Triumph and Reunification (1945) This evocative photograph captures the jubilant atmosphere at Buckingham Palace on May 8, 1945, as the British people gathered to celebrate the end of the European phase of World War II, or Victory in Europe Day (VE Day). The war in Europe had ended just days prior, following the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany. The image shows a sea of humanity, with an estimated 200,000 people filling the streets of London to catch a glimpse of their monarch and the royal family. The anticipation is palpable as the crowd eagerly awaits their appearance on the balcony. King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, along with their daughters, Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret, make their way to the balcony, waving and smiling at their adoring subjects. The scene is one of unity and triumph, as the people of Britain come together to celebrate their victory and the end of six long years of war. The war-weary population, many of whom had lost loved ones or suffered personal hardships, revel in this moment of joy and relief. The image encapsulates the spirit of resilience and hope that defined the British people during this pivotal moment in history. As the royal family appears on the balcony, the crowd erupts in a cacophony of cheers, shouts, and the ringing of VE Day bells. The scene is a testament to the power of unity and the human spirit, as the people of Britain come together to celebrate their victory and look forward to a brighter future.
