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
This photograph showcases the majestic HMA R80, a transport aircraft that once graced the skies with its distinctive presence. The R80, also known as the H-21 Shawnee, was a versatile and iconic aircraft used primarily by the military for various roles including transport, medical evacuation, and search and rescue operations. The image captures the R80 mid-flight, with its powerful propellers churning up the air behind it, leaving a trail of white contrails against the clear blue sky. The intricate details of the aircraft's design are on full display, from the sleek wings to the distinctive tail fin and cockpit windows. The shadows cast by the wings and landing gear add depth and texture to the photograph, while the sun's rays illuminate the aircraft's metallic surface, making it appear almost ethereal. The HMA R80 was a testament to the engineering prowess of its time, with a maximum speed of 227 miles per hour and a range of over 1,000 miles. Its versatility and reliability made it a favorite among military personnel, and it saw action in various conflicts and humanitarian missions around the world. This photograph is a reminder of the beauty and power of aviation history, and the important role that transport aircraft like the HMA R80 played in shaping the world we live in today. Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, a historian, or simply someone who appreciates the art of photography, this image is sure to inspire and captivate you.
