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.

Mr. Charles Green's Coronation Balloon: A Pioneering Aeronautical Achievement This photograph captures the moment of triumph and innovation as Mr. Charles Green prepares for takeoff in his hot air balloon during the historic Coronation celebrations of King George VI in 1937. The image showcases the daring spirit of ballooning and aviation pioneers like Mr. Green, who pushed the boundaries of human flight. Dressed in his traditional aeronautical attire, Mr. Green, with a determined gaze, checks the last-minute adjustments to the burner and the balloon's envelope. The Coronation Balloon, a magnificent creation, stands tall and proud, ready to carry its fearless pilot into the sky. The vibrant colors of the balloon, contrasting against the lush green landscape, add an air of excitement and anticipation. The Coronation Balloon flight was a significant achievement for Mr. Green, who had already made a name for himself in the world of ballooning. This event marked his most notable accomplishment, as he became the first person to fly a hot air balloon during a British monarch's coronation. His daring flight not only showcased the beauty and potential of hot air balloons but also highlighted the progress made in the field of aviation. As Mr. Green ascends into the sky, leaving the ground crew and the cheering crowd behind, one can't help but feel a sense of awe and admiration for this pioneering aviator. The photograph encapsulates the spirit of adventure, courage, and the human desire to explore the unknown heights. This image is a testament to the enduring allure of hot air ballooning and the pioneers who made it possible.
