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.

In this photo print, we are transported back to the thrilling world of Formula One racing in 1976. The image showcases a dedicated mechanic diligently working on the Penske PC4 of British driver John Watson during the United States Grand Prix East at Watkins Glen International. The mechanic's intense focus is palpable as he meticulously tends to every detail of the race car, ensuring it is in optimal condition for the demanding track ahead. With his hands covered in grease and dirt, he epitomizes the unsung heroes behind every successful race. John Watson, who finished an impressive sixth position in this particular race, owes much of his success to the skillful expertise and tireless efforts of mechanics like these.
