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
Designer Alexander McQueen bids farewell to London Fashion Week in a chilling spectacle that left the audience breathless. Inspired by Stephen King's haunting novel, 'The Shining, ' McQueen transformed the runway into an icy wonderland, reminiscent of the frozen wasteland where a psychotic killer lurks. The show took place on a specially constructed frozen pond, crafted from an astounding 25 tons of ice and enclosed within towering 20ft high plexiglass walls. The location, a transport depot in London's Victoria, provided the perfect backdrop for this unique fashion extravaganza. As the grand finale approached, anticipation filled the air. Marika Humphries, renowned former national ice skating champion, gracefully glided onto center stage leading a mesmerizing corps de ballet. With each elegant twirl and graceful leap across the glistening ice surface, she transported us into another world. McQueen's visionary designs seamlessly merged with Humphries' ethereal performance as they waltzed together under shimmering lights. The juxtaposition of avant-garde fashion against the stark beauty of ice created an otherworldly experience that will forever be etched in our memories. This photograph captures not only McQueen's final bow at London Fashion Week but also showcases his ability to push boundaries and create unforgettable moments on and off the runway. Alison McDougall has masterfully captured this moment in time through her lens; it is truly a piece worth cherishing.
