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
This print from Stocktrek Images captures the intense scene of a controlled fire in the Gulf of Mexico on May 6,2010. Dark clouds of smoke and fire billow out as oil burns fiercely on the water's surface. The U. S. Coast Guard, in collaboration with BP PLC, local residents, and other federal agencies, conducted this in situ burn to combat the spread of oil following the devastating explosion on Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit Deepwater Horizon. The image showcases the magnitude of this environmental disaster as dark clouds loom over Venice, Louisiana. The horizontal composition emphasizes the vastness of both pollution and destruction caused by this catastrophe. With no people present in sight, it is a haunting reminder that nature itself bears witness to our actions. The photograph captures not only an alarming moment but also highlights military involvement through its inclusion of US Coast Guard vessels amidst the chaos. This technique employed by them aims to prevent further contamination and protect marine life. As we gaze upon this striking image, we are reminded of both humanity's power to cause harm and our responsibility to mitigate such disasters. It serves as a stark visual representation of how quickly things can escalate when safety measures fail or negligence prevails.
