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
In this print captured by John Downing in 1987, we catch a glimpse of the formidable Margaret Thatcher, the Iron Lady herself, and her husband Dennis enjoying a quiet moment together. The image transports us back to a sunny day in May as the couple sits on a park bench, savoring their coffee. Margaret Thatcher, known for her strong leadership and conservative politics, served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990. Here she is seen with her loyal companion and confidant, Dennis Thatcher. Both are engrossed in conversation while indulging in their shared habit - smoking. The photograph offers an intimate portrayal of these influential figures outside the political arena. Despite their public personas and high-profile roles within British society, they appear relaxed and at ease amidst nature's tranquility. This snapshot serves as a reminder that even those who shape history need moments of respite. It humanizes Margaret Thatcher and provides insight into her personal life beyond her political achievements. The image also reflects societal norms prevalent during that era when smoking was more widely accepted than it is today. John Downing's skillful composition captures not only the essence of this iconic duo but also encapsulates an era defined by conservative values and significant political change. This print allows us to reflect upon both personal relationships within powerful couples and how politicians navigate public scrutiny while finding solace in simple pleasures like sharing coffee in the park.
