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.

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 takes us back to the 1940s, during the Second World War, when details of the Army's commandos were just released. These elite units consisted of highly trained and carefully selected men who would be assigned to special duties. Adaptability was their key strength as they needed to navigate various circumstances with ease. Living off the land and possessing exceptional woodcraft skills were essential for these commandos, enabling them to find their way around unfamiliar territories after only a brief study of a map. The photograph captures a moment from their intensive training programme. We witness brave soldiers climbing a steep hillside while carrying full equipment, showcasing not only their physical fitness but also their determination in preparing for combat situations. The image serves as a testament to the unwavering dedication and resilience displayed by these remarkable individuals.
