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 evocative image captures the spirit of camaraderie and selflessness during the chaotic and brutal landscape of the Western Front in World War I. The photograph, taken circa 1917, depicts a colonial Indian soldier from Delhi, identified as a 1st Class Sikh Soldier in the British Indian Army, aiding a wounded French trooper. The Indian soldier, dressed in his military uniform and wearing a turban, is seen leading the injured Frenchman on the back of a donkey towards the safety of the Allied lines. The image is a poignant reminder of the multinational and multicultural nature of the Allied forces during the war. The Indian soldier's unwavering commitment to helping his comrade, despite the dangers of the battlefield, is a testament to the bravery and compassion of soldiers during wartime. The image also highlights the important role that colonial soldiers played in the Allied war effort, often serving alongside their British counterparts and contributing significantly to the eventual victory. The Indian soldier's gentle yet firm grip on the French trooper, the determined look in his eyes, and the calm demeanor of the donkey all add to the sense of tranquility amidst the chaos of war. This powerful photograph is a reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers from all corners of the world during the Great War.
