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, His Royal Highness The Duke and Duchess of York, later known as King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, are seen aboard the motor yacht "Juanita," making their way up the picturesque Brisbane River in Australia during their official tour of the country in 1927. The Duke, who would ascend to the throne in 1936, is dressed in a smart naval uniform, while the Duchess, the future Queen Mother, dons an elegant dress and hat, both fitting for the royal occasion. The Duke and Duchess of York's visit to Australia was an important part of their world tour, which also included stops in New Zealand, South Africa, and Canada. The tour aimed to strengthen the ties between the British monarchy and its dominions, as well as to promote goodwill and understanding between the peoples of the Commonwealth. As they travelled through the beautiful Moreton Bay region, the royal couple was greeted with great enthusiasm by the locals, who lined the riverbanks to catch a glimpse of their beloved monarchs. The motor yacht "Juanita," which was owned by a wealthy Australian businessman, provided the perfect means of transportation for the royals to explore the scenic waterways and connect with the Australian people. This photograph captures a moment in time when the Duke and Duchess of York, who would later play crucial roles in British history, were still enjoying their youth and the early days of their royal duties. The image is a testament to the enduring appeal of the British monarchy and the special connection between the royals and their people, both in the United Kingdom and its dominions.
