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 evocative photograph captures a moment in American maritime history as US submarines Octopus and Snapper, along with battleships New Jersey and Georgia, gracefully navigate the Hudson River in New York State, circa 1910. The image showcases the impressive size and power of these naval vessels, with their towering masts and imposing hulls, adorned with the Stars and Stripes. The Octopus and Snapper were part of the Submarine Force, US Atlantic Fleet, representing the cutting edge of naval technology at the time. The submarine class, with its distinctive conning towers, allowed for underwater exploration and warfare, revolutionizing naval warfare and expanding the strategic capabilities of the US Navy. Meanwhile, battleships New Jersey and Georgia, proudly displaying their state namesakes' flags, showcase the might and grandeur of the US Navy's surface fleet. These vessels, with their heavy armament and protective belt armor, symbolized the nation's military prowess and determination to protect its shores. The scene is further enlivened by the presence of people on the shore, some observing the vessels with a sense of awe and curiosity, while others prepare for potential emergencies with lifebelts in hand. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating look at a pivotal moment in American naval history.
