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 poignant photograph captures the moment of compassion and humanity amidst the chaos and devastation of the First World War. Taken on October 26, 1918, in the Belgian city of Tournai, Flanders, a British soldier, likely wearing a helmet and holding a tin of rations, cradles two young refugee children - a girl and a boy - in his arms. Their smiles, despite the hardships they have faced, convey a sense of hope and resilience. The image is a testament to the human spirit that prevails even in the darkest of times. The children, who have been displaced from their homes due to the war, find comfort and security in the soldier's embrace. The photograph, taken by Robert Hunt for the Imperial War Museum, is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during wartime and the innocent lives that are often caught in the crossfire. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of empathy and compassion, especially during times of conflict.
