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
1. Title: "Royal Air Force Hawker Hunter T.7 XL600 of No. 4 Flying Training School, Circa 1970" 2. Description: This evocative photograph captures the sleek lines and power of a Royal Air Force (RAF) Hawker Hunter T.7, registration XL600, as it taxis on the tarmac of an airbase. The image, taken circa 1970, showcases the aircraft in its element, with the distinctive RAF roundel and serial number "83" clearly visible on the fuselage. 3. Background: The Hawker Hunter was a versatile British jet fighter and trainer aircraft that first entered service with the RAF in 1954. The T.7 variant, a two-seat trainer version, was introduced in 1955 and served as the primary trainer for RAF pilots until the 1990s. No. 4 Flying Training School (FTS) was one of the RAF's premier training establishments, responsible for providing advanced flying training to both pilots and navigators. 4. Composition: The photograph masterfully frames the Hunter against a moody, overcast sky, with the aircraft's powerful engines emitting plumes of smoke as it moves towards the camera. The use of shadows and contrast adds depth and texture to the image, while the crisp lines and details of the Hunter's design are accentuated by the monochrome palette. 5. Significance: This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the history of the RAF and its training programs during the Cold War era. The Hawker Hunter, with its impressive performance and versatility, played a crucial role in shaping the next generation of RAF pilots. The image also serves as a testament to the enduring allure of military aviation and the iconic status of the Hawker Hunter within the RAF's rich legacy.
