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 stoic determination of five officers of the Royal Fusiliers during the First World War, as they pose for a group portrait in September 1915. Among them is Albert Auerbach (1894-1918), who was commissioned into the regiment on 20 July of that year. The image, taken in the autumn of 1915, likely in London, captures the officers in their distinctive uniforms, complete with peaked caps and brass buttons. The young and middle-aged men, with their serious expressions and stern gazes, embody the courage and resilience of the soldiers who served during this pivotal period in world history. The First World War, also known as WWI or the Great War, lasted from 1914 to 1918 and saw the mobilization of millions of soldiers from across Europe and beyond. The Royal Fusiliers, a famous British infantry regiment with a rich history dating back to the late 17th century, played a significant role in the conflict. This photograph offers a poignant reminder of the human cost of war, as well as the camaraderie and unity that could be found among the troops. Albert Auerbach, like his comrades, was a man of his time, living through one of the most tumultuous periods in history. His story, and that of his fellow officers, is a testament to the enduring spirit of those who served during the First World War.
