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.

1. Title: "A Rousing Game of Rugby at Rugby School, 1870" This evocative photograph captures the spirit of rugby as it was played over a century ago, at the very birthplace of the sport, Rugby School in Warwickshire, England. The image is filled with the raw energy and excitement of a lively school rugby match, with a crowd of young boys in their school uniforms charging after the ball, their faces reflecting determination and focus. Rugby School is renowned as the cradle of rugby football, with the game's rules having been established here in 1823 when a player, William Webb Ellis, reportedly picked up the ball during a game of soccer and ran with it. This historic moment marked the beginning of rugby as we know it today, and the school has since been an integral part of the sport's rich history. The photograph, taken in 1870, provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the passion and enthusiasm that has long been associated with rugby. The boys in the image are dressed in traditional school uniforms, their blazers and caps adding to the sense of tradition and camaraderie. The scene is set against the backdrop of a beautiful autumnal day, with trees displaying a riot of colours, further enhancing the sense of nostalgia. This photograph is not only a testament to the enduring appeal of rugby but also a reminder of the role that Rugby School has played in shaping the sport's history. It is a captivating image that transports us back in time, allowing us to experience the thrill and excitement of a rugby match as it was played over a century ago.
