31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 captured by Kent Gavin, we witness a significant moment in history as Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales, graces the 50th Anniversary Independence celebrations in Colombo, Sri Lanka. The year is 1998 and the atmosphere is charged with excitement and patriotism. As the scorching heat engulfs the venue, Prince Charles can be seen mopping his brow with a handkerchief. Despite the discomfort caused by the weather, his unwavering dedication to duty shines through. Seated next to him is President Chandrika Bandaranaike Kumaratunge, both engaged in deep conversation. This image encapsulates not only a celebration of independence but also highlights politics and royalty intertwining on an international stage. It serves as a reminder of how diplomacy plays an essential role in fostering relationships between nations.

Kent Gavin's skillful composition allows us to feel like witnesses to this historic occasion while reminding us of its significance for both Sri Lanka and Britain.
