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 during the Easter Rising of 1916 in Dublin, Ireland, when members of the Ops Volunteers, also known as the Ulster Volunteers, rode on horseback through the city streets. The Easter Rising was an insurrection in Ireland during Easter Week, April 24 to 29, 1916, in which a number of nationalist revolutionary groups aimed to end British rule in Ireland and establish an independent Irish Republic. The Ops Volunteers, a paramilitary organization formed in 1913, were predominantly Protestant and Ulster Unionist in composition. They were opposed to Home Rule for Ireland and saw themselves as defenders of the Union with Great Britain. However, during the Easter Rising, some Ops Volunteers, led by Major John MacBride, joined the rebellion and fought alongside the Irish Republican Brotherhood and the Irish Citizen Army. In this photograph, the Ops Volunteers can be seen riding through the streets of Dublin, their horses' hooves pounding on the cobblestones, as they make their way through the chaos of the rebellion. The soldiers are dressed in their uniforms, some carrying rifles, while others brandish swords or revolvers. The scene is one of both defiance and determination, as the volunteers march through the city, likely on their way to join the fighting. The Easter Rising ultimately failed to achieve its objectives, but it is considered a pivotal moment in Irish history, as it marked the beginning of the end of British rule in Ireland and paved the way for the Irish War of Independence and, eventually, the establishment of the Irish Free State. This photograph is a powerful reminder of the events of that fateful week in April 1916 and the complex political and military dynamics at play during a time of great upheaval in Irish history.
