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.

1. Title: "Pakistan Air Force's Hawker Tempest II, A135: A Piece of Aviation History This photograph showcases the Hawker Tempest II, A135, a historic aircraft that once soared in the skies as a proud member of the Pakistan Air Force. The Tempest II, a British-designed fighter plane, is renowned for its exceptional performance and versatility, having served in various roles during World War II and post-war periods. The aircraft in this image, specifically registered as A135, was transferred to Pakistan following the country's independence in 1947. The Pakistan Air Force integrated the Tempest II into its fleet, where it continued to serve with distinction. Its powerful Rolls-Royce Griffon engine, capable of producing over 2,000 horsepower, made it a formidable force in the skies. The Tempest II's sleek and aerodynamic design, featuring a distinctive elliptical wing, allowed it to outmaneuver many contemporary aircraft. Its versatility extended to various roles, including fighter, ground-attack, and interceptor duties. This versatility, combined with its impressive performance, made it a valuable asset to the Pakistan Air Force during the 1950s and 1960s. As the years passed, the Tempest II, A135, like many other aircraft of its era, was eventually retired from active service. However, its legacy continues to live on, reminding us of the rich history of aviation and the crucial role that aircraft like the Hawker Tempest II played in shaping the skies above. This photograph, captured by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and significance of this historic aircraft. The Hawker Tempest II, A135, may no longer be in service, but its story continues to inspire and captivate aviation enthusiasts around the world.
