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
In this evocative image, William I, also known as William the Conqueror, is depicted in the moment of his triumphant victory at the Battle of Hastings in 1066. The Norman-French monarch, dressed in his regal attire, is shown kneeling before an unseen figure as he receives the English crown. The scene is filled with an air of solemnity and reverence, as William's victory marked the end of Anglo-Saxon rule in England and the beginning of the Norman Conquest. The background of the print is adorned with an array of flags, symbolizing the diverse array of forces that fought in the battle. The English flag, featuring the cross of St. George, can be seen among the banners of the defeated Anglo-Saxon army. In contrast, the Norman flags, bearing the cross of St. Valery, flutter proudly in the wind, signifying the victorious Norman forces. William's expression is one of determination and resolve, reflecting the challenges he faced in securing his claim to the English throne. The battle, which took place on October 14, 1066, was a turning point in English history and marked the beginning of a new era under Norman rule. This powerful image captures the essence of William's victory, highlighting the significance of the Battle of Hastings and the establishment of the Norman Conquest in England. The intricate details of the print, from the intricately designed flags to the lifelike portrayal of William, make it a captivating and historically important piece.
