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 captured by Cairns, we are transported back to the 1980s, witnessing a significant moment in Charlton Athletic's history. It is the last match at the iconic Valley Ground before their move to Selhurst Park, and emotions run high as fans bid farewell to their beloved stadium. The image depicts an empty field after Charlton Athletic's triumphant victory over Stoke City with a score of 2-0. The nets have been taken down from the goalmouth for the final time, symbolizing both closure and new beginnings. The groundsman meticulously tends to his duties, perhaps feeling a mix of nostalgia and anticipation for what lies ahead. This snapshot encapsulates not only the action-packed nature of football but also captures a sense of emptiness that lingers in such moments of transition. As spectators gaze upon this photograph, they can almost feel the echoes of cheers reverberating through those now-vacant stands. Cairns' skillful composition allows us to immerse ourselves in this historic event while contemplating how sports can shape our collective memories. This print serves as a poignant reminder that stadiums may change, but the passion and dedication shared between players and supporters endure forever.
