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 photo print, we are transported back to a significant moment in history - December 1987 at RAF Brize Norton. The image captures the remarkable encounter between two influential figures of the 20th century: Mikhail Gorbachev and Margaret Thatcher. Both politicians were renowned for their conservative ideologies and played pivotal roles in shaping global politics during the 1980s. As Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Thatcher's iron-willed leadership earned her the nickname "The Iron Lady" while Gorbachev's progressive policies as General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union brought about unprecedented changes within his country. Their meeting at RAF Brize Norton symbolizes a rare moment of collaboration amidst political tensions. It serves as a testament to their commitment to dialogue and diplomacy, despite ideological differences. This photograph encapsulates an era defined by Cold War politics and showcases how even staunch adversaries can find common ground when it comes to matters of international importance. Reg Lancaster, an esteemed photographer from Memory Lane Prints, has beautifully captured this historic occasion with great finesse. His lens immortalizes not just two prominent leaders but also represents a turning point in global affairs. This print is more than just an artistic masterpiece; it is a visual reminder that even amidst political divisions, there exists room for understanding and cooperation on issues that transcend borders and ideologies.
