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
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the exhilarating atmosphere of the Wimbledon Tennis Championships in 1970. The image captures the intense action and unwavering determination of two legendary tennis players, B. Fairlie and Taylor. As the first day of the championships unfolds, we witness Fairlie's desperate rush to reach a seemingly impossible shot by Taylor. With lightning speed and agility, he lunges forward with his racket extended towards the ball. However, fate has other plans as Fairlie narrowly misses his target. The sheer intensity of this moment is palpable as Fairlie's momentum propels him dangerously close to colliding with spectators on the sidelines. We can almost feel our hearts skip a beat as we imagine ourselves among those startled fans witnessing this near-miss firsthand. This photograph perfectly encapsulates both the thrill and unpredictability that make tennis such an enthralling sport. It serves as a timeless reminder that even for skilled athletes like Fairlie, victory can sometimes slip through their fingers in an instant. With its vibrant depiction of sportsmanship and adrenaline-fueled competition, this print is not just a visual representation but also a nostalgic time capsule capturing one unforgettable moment from Wimbledon's rich history in June 1970.
