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
This print showcases the formidable "Cockatrice flame thrower" mounted on a sturdy Bedford chassis, stationed at Studland Bay during World War Two. Taken by renowned photographer Charles E Brown, this image captures the raw power and innovation of wartime technology. The Cockatrice flame thrower was an awe-inspiring weapon that played a crucial role in military operations during the war. Its imposing presence is evident as it sits atop the robust Bedford chassis, ready to unleash its fiery might upon enemy forces. The combination of advanced engineering and sheer destructive force makes this photograph a testament to human ingenuity amidst conflict. Studland Bay serves as an atmospheric backdrop for this historical snapshot. With its serene coastline contrasting against the menacing machine before us, we are reminded of the juxtaposition between beauty and destruction that defined World War Two. Preserved within the Royal Air Force (RAF) Museum's collection, this print offers viewers a glimpse into a significant chapter in our history. It serves as both a reminder of past sacrifices made by brave servicemen and women and an opportunity to appreciate technological advancements forged under extraordinary circumstances. As we observe this remarkable artifact from afar, let us reflect upon those who operated these weapons with courage and determination. May their bravery never be forgotten, serving as inspiration for generations to come.
