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 photograph captures the devastating aftermath of a Zeppelin raid on the Home Front town of Southend-on-Sea during World War I. Dated to April 1915, the image shows the extensive damage caused by incendiary bombs that rained down on this British coastal community. The once-peaceful residential street is now a scene of destruction, with houses reduced to little more than rubble and ruins. The hole in the roof of this particular house serves as a stark reminder of the violent assault that took place in the early hours of the morning. The German Zeppelin, a menacing symbol of the enemy, had attacked without warning, leaving behind a trail of destruction and tragedy. The people of Southend, like many communities across the United Kingdom, were forced to endure the terror of air raids as the war on the Western Front extended to their very doorsteps. This poignant photograph offers a glimpse into the harsh realities of life on the Home Front during World War I.
