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 evocative image captures the intensity and chaos of the Battle of Waterloo, specifically the pivotal moment at La Haye-Sainte on June 18, 1815. The historic scene unfolds before us as British and Dutch-Belgian forces, led by the Duke of Wellington and General Count D'Erlon, clash in a fierce battle that would ultimately decide the outcome of the Napoleonic Wars. The photograph, taken from a bird's eye view, shows the rolling hills and open fields of Belgium, dotted with soldiers and cavalry charges. In the center, the farmhouse at La Haye-Sainte stands defiantly amidst the carnage, its white walls a stark contrast to the chaos surrounding it. British troops, dressed in red coats and bearing muskets, advance towards the French lines, while French cavalry, in blue and red uniforms, charge in response. Smoke rises from the battlefield, obscuring parts of the scene and adding to the sense of confusion and uncertainty. The Battle of Waterloo was a turning point in European history, marking the end of Napoleon Bonaparte's reign as Emperor of the French and the beginning of a new era. The fighting at La Haye-Sainte was a critical engagement, with both sides suffering heavy losses. The outcome of this battle hinged on the ability of the Allied forces to hold the farmstead and prevent the French from advancing towards Brussels. In the end, the British and Dutch-Belgian forces were successful, and the French army was forced to retreat. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the Napoleonic Wars and the pivotal role that the Battle of Waterloo played in shaping European history. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to witness this historic moment and appreciate the bravery and determination of the soldiers who fought in it.
