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
This print from Memory Lane Prints takes us back to the tumultuous era of the Suez Crisis in 1956. The image showcases a poignant moment as the families of British workers in Egypt arrive at London Airport on October 8th, 1956. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a mix of emotions etched across their faces - relief, anxiety, and perhaps even a tinge of sadness for leaving behind their lives in Egypt. As they disembark from the plane, it is evident that these families have been caught up in the midst of conflict and political unrest. The Suez Crisis was a defining moment in history when tensions between Egypt and Western powers escalated over control of the strategic Suez Canal. This photograph encapsulates not only the personal impact but also symbolizes wider geopolitical implications. The seriousness and gravity of this situation are palpable through every detail captured by Manchester Mirror's lens. It serves as a reminder that war affects not just soldiers or politicians but ordinary people who find themselves swept up in its wake. Decades later, this evocative image continues to resonate with viewers as it offers an intimate glimpse into one family's journey amidst global turmoil. It stands as a testament to both human resilience and the enduring power of photography to preserve significant moments throughout history.
