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
This poignant head and shoulders studio portrait captures the young face of Albert Auerbach, a brave soldier in the Royal Fusiliers during World War I. The photograph was taken in February 1917, a time when the war was entering its third year and the tide of battle was far from turning in favor of the Allies. Auerbach, born in 1894, wears the distinctive uniform of the Royal Fusiliers, complete with a red tie, brass buttons, and a leather strap holding his rifleman's badge. The serious expression on his face speaks volumes about the heavy burden of responsibility and the fear that must have weighed on his shoulders as he prepared to face the horrors of the battlefield. The image is a poignant reminder of the young men and women who answered the call to duty during the First World War, and the sacrifices they made for their country. This photograph, taken over a century ago, serves as a powerful testament to the courage and resilience of those who lived through one of history's most tumultuous periods.
