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 takes us back to the thrilling 800 metres Olympic final at the Grand Arena of the Central Lenin Stadium during the Moscow Olympics on July 27th, 1980. The image captures two legendary athletes, Sebastion Coe and Steve Ovett, positioned at the back of the field, ready to unleash their incredible talent. As we delve into this historic moment in sports history, it is fascinating to note that both Coe and Ovett would eventually become winners in their own right. Steve Ovett from Great Britain claimed the gold medal with a remarkable time of 1:45.4, showcasing his exceptional speed and endurance. Close behind him was his compatriot Sebastion Coe who secured the silver medal with a time of 1:45.9, proving himself as an extraordinary athlete. The bronze medal went to Nikolay Kirov from USSR (now Russia) who displayed great skill and determination with a timing of 1:46.0. This race not only showcased these three remarkable individuals but also highlighted their countries' prowess in middle-distance running. Gavin Kent's expertly captured photograph transports us back to this electrifying event where dreams were realized and records were broken. It serves as a timeless reminder of these iconic athletes' achievements and ignites our passion for athletics even decades later.
