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 print from the 1983 Monaco Grand Prix, we witness the intense world of Formula One racing unfold. Jacques Laffite, a skilled French driver representing Williams FW08C, takes center stage in his quest for victory on the iconic streets of Monte Carlo. However, fate had different plans for him that day. As rain pours down relentlessly, turning the track into a treacherous battleground, Laffite's determination to conquer these challenging conditions is palpable. The tension in his face and the focused grip on his steering wheel reveal a fierce competitor ready to push himself and his car to their limits. Yet, despite his unwavering resolve, destiny dealt Laffite an unfortunate hand as he was forced to retire from the race (DNF). This moment frozen in time captures both disappointment and resilience - emotions synonymous with motorsport. The vibrant colors of Monaco's picturesque backdrop contrast starkly against the wet asphalt; it serves as a reminder that even amidst adversity and setbacks, beauty can still be found. This photograph encapsulates not only one man's pursuit of glory but also pays tribute to all those who dare challenge themselves within this exhilarating sport. This stunning image is a testament to Motorsport Images' ability to capture raw emotion and adrenaline-fueled action without compromising artistic integrity or commercial use intentions. It invites us into an extraordinary world where speed meets skill and where every twist and turn holds infinite possibilities.
