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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the unfortunate turn of events during the Formula One World Championship in 1977. Renzo Zorzi, representing Shadow DN8, is seen retiring from the race on lap 22 due to a blown engine. Little did anyone know that this incident would have devastating consequences for his teammate Tom Pryce. Taken at the South African Grand Prix in Kyalami, South Africa, on March 5th, this image encapsulates the intensity and unpredictability of motorsport. The vibrant colors and dynamic composition draw us into the heart of the action as these skilled drivers push their limits on the track. Tragically, what unfolded after Zorzi's retirement was beyond anyone's imagination. As fate would have it, Pryce encountered an unforeseen collision with a marshal who had run onto the track to extinguish another car fire. The impact proved fatal for both Pryce and the marshal. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of how quickly circumstances can change within racing and highlights not only its thrilling nature but also its inherent risks. It immortalizes a moment that forever altered two lives and left an indelible mark on motorsport history. As we reflect upon this powerful image captured by Motorsport Images, let us remember those who have sacrificed their lives pursuing their passion for speed while honoring their enduring legacy within Formula One racing.
