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 print from the Royal Air Force (RAF) Museum, we are transported back to the interwar period of 1919. The image showcases Charles Brown, a distinguished member of the British Army, donning his smart Army uniform while engaged in an animated conversation with friends or relatives. Standing on the right side of the frame, Charles exudes confidence and pride as he converses with those around him. His military attire symbolizes his commitment and dedication to serving his country during a time of great change and uncertainty. As we observe this snapshot frozen in time, it becomes evident that Charles is not alone; he is surrounded by a diverse group of individuals who share camaraderie and support for one another. The presence of women among Charles' companions challenges traditional gender roles prevalent at that time. It serves as a reminder that even during periods dominated by male-centric institutions like the RAF or Royal Flying Corps, women played significant roles both within these organizations and in supporting their loved ones who served. This print captures not only personal connections but also represents a broader historical context. It offers us glimpses into individual stories woven together by shared experiences within Britain's armed forces during this transformative era.
