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
This evocative photograph captures the moment a Ypres train passes by the Larch Wood Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) Cemetery in Ieper, Belgium, in 2016. The train, laden with passengers and cargo, moves steadily through the landscape, its steam plume billowing in the air. In the background, the meticulously maintained rows of headstones at Larch Wood CWGC Cemetery stretch out towards the horizon, a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the First World War. The Larch Wood Cemetery, established in 1917, is the final resting place for over 4,500 Commonwealth soldiers who lost their lives in the Ypres Salient during the First World War. The cemetery is a testament to the enduring commitment of the Commonwealth War Graves Commission to honor and remember the fallen. The passing train, a common sight in this part of Belgium, adds a sense of continuity and life to the scene, juxtaposed against the solemnity of the cemetery. The photograph invites us to reflect on the passage of time and the interconnectedness of history, memory, and the present moment. As the train moves on, leaving the cemetery behind, it carries with it the stories of the past and the promise of the future. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring impact of the First World War on the people of Belgium and the world, and the importance of remembering and honoring those who gave their lives in the service of their countries.
