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 photograph captures the enigmatic and adventurous spirit of Sir Henry Rider Haggard (1856-1925), a prolific English writer renowned for his thrilling adventure stories. The image, taken during Haggard's later years, reveals the author's distinguished appearance with his well-groomed moustache, winged collar, and piercing gaze. His head is adorned with a chain, adding an air of mystery and intrigue. Born in Norfolk, England, Haggard's literary career began in earnest after the failure of his first business venture. He turned to writing, and his first novel, "Victoria" (1892), was an instant success. However, it was his second novel, "She: A History of Adventure" (1887), that would secure his place in literary history. The story of an Englishman's search for the lost city of Kor, "She" introduced the world to the iconic character of Ayesha, also known as She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed. Haggard's works, which often featured strong female characters and exotic locales, were immensely popular during his time and continue to inspire generations of readers. His influence can be seen in various forms of media, from film and television to comic books and video games. This photograph, with its striking composition and intriguing subject matter, serves as a reminder of Haggard's enduring legacy as a master storyteller and a pioneer of the adventure genre.
