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 print captures the resilience and spirit of the people of Rheims during Christmas amidst the devastation caused by bombings. The image shows wine vaults transformed into a makeshift chapel, symbolizing hope and faith in the face of adversity.
The historical significance of this scene cannot be understated, as it serves as a poignant reminder of the impact of war on communities and their ability to come together in times of crisis. Despite the destruction surrounding them, the residents of Rheims have found solace in coming together to celebrate Christmas in this unique setting.
The contrast between the solemnity of the chapel and the festive decorations for Christmas creates a powerful visual narrative that speaks volumes about human perseverance and strength. It is a testament to the unwavering spirit of those who refuse to let tragedy define them, choosing instead to find beauty and joy even in difficult circumstances.
As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded not only of the history that has shaped our world but also of our capacity for resilience and compassion. It is a timeless reminder that even in our darkest moments, there is always light to be found if we choose to look for it.
