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
Suvla Bay, 6th August, Gallipoli, 1915: A Moment in Time Frozen in a Photograph This evocative photograph captures a moment in history, taken on the shores of Suvla Bay in Gallipoli, Turkey, on the 6th of August, 1915. The image is part of an album of 49 photographs, titled "The War 1914-1918," which documents the official war photographs associated with World War One, specifically the Gallipoli campaign of 1915-1916. The photograph reveals a group of soldiers, likely from the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC), standing at the water's edge of Suvla Bay. The soldiers appear to be in a state of readiness, with their weapons at the ready and their eyes focused on the horizon. The Gallipoli Peninsula, which stretches out behind them, is a desolate and rocky landscape, dotted with military tents and equipment. The date of the photograph, August 6, 1915, is significant as it marks the beginning of the second phase of the Gallipoli campaign. After the initial landings at Anzac Cove on April 25, 1915, the Allied forces attempted to expand their presence on the peninsula by launching an amphibious operation at Suvla Bay. The operation was met with heavy resistance from the Ottoman forces, resulting in a costly and ultimately unsuccessful campaign. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers who fought in the Gallipoli campaign. It also offers a glimpse into the harsh and unforgiving conditions they faced, as they struggled to gain a foothold on the shores of the Mediterranean Sea. The image is a testament to the enduring power of photography to capture and preserve history, allowing future generations to bear witness to the events of the past.
