1981 Biggin Flown Gilbert Hanna Spitfire Supermarine
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
In this photograph, we witness the iconic Supermarine Spitfire FRXIVC, registration number G-FIRE/NH904, gracefully taking to the skies above Biggin Hill Airfield in 1981. The Spitfire, a British single-seat fighter aircraft, is renowned for its significant role in the Second World War and its enduring status as a symbol of British aviation heritage. At the controls of this historic aircraft is Ray Hanna, a skilled aviator who brought the Spitfire to life on this day. Hanna's passion for flying and dedication to preserving the legacy of the Spitfire is evident in the smooth and powerful ascent of the aircraft. The photograph, taken by the esteemed aviation photographer James Gilbert, captures the essence of the moment - the raw power, the grace, and the sheer excitement of flight. The Supermarine Spitfire, designed by R.J. Mitchell, first flew in 1936 and quickly became a formidable force in the skies during the Second World War. With its distinctive elliptical wings and powerful Rolls-Royce Merlin engine, the Spitfire was a favorite among pilots for its agility and firepower. The aircraft served in various roles, including fighter escort, interceptor, and ground-attack, and was produced in large numbers, making it one of the most iconic and recognizable aircraft in history. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the Supermarine Spitfire and the passion of those who continue to fly and preserve these historic aircraft. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to experience the thrill of aviation history as it unfolds before our eyes.
