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 photograph captures a pivotal moment in World War I history as Sir Winston Churchill, then Minister of Munitions for the British government, watches the 47th Division march through the streets of Lille, France in October 1918. Two weeks before the Armistice, the Allied forces were making their final push towards victory, and the morale of the troops was high. Churchill, known for his unwavering support for the war effort, is seen here in the midst of the action, observing the soldiers with a sense of pride and determination. The 47th Division, which had suffered heavy losses during the Battle of Cambrai the previous year, had regrouped and was now making its way towards the German front lines. The image of Churchill, with his signature cigar clenched between his teeth and a determined look in his eyes, serves as a testament to the resilience and tenacity of the Allied forces during the final stages of the war. This historical photograph, taken during a pivotal moment in world history, offers a glimpse into the past and the sacrifices made by the soldiers and leaders who fought in the Great War.
