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
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the historic moment of Queen Elizabeth II's coronation on 2nd June 1953. The focus, however, falls upon another remarkable queen - Queen Salote of Tonga. As she rides through the streets of London in an open carriage, her radiant smile and graceful wave endear her to the cheering crowds that have gathered despite the pouring rain. Queen Salote's presence exudes elegance and charm as she proudly represents her nation within the Commonwealth. Her regal hat adds a touch of sophistication to her ensemble, perfectly complementing her status as royalty. It is evident that this woman possesses a genuine warmth and connection with those around her. The image captures a beautiful moment where two queens unite in celebration amidst an atmosphere filled with excitement and anticipation. Despite being drenched by raindrops falling relentlessly from above, both women remain undeterred in their mission to bring joy and unity to their people. Bob Hope skillfully immortalizes this extraordinary scene through his lens, allowing us to relive this significant event in history. This photograph serves as a testament not only to the power of monarchy but also to the enduring spirit of friendship between nations during one of Britain's most memorable moments in modern times.
