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 powerful and thought-provoking image captured by Stocktrek Images, we see the shadow of a U. S. Army soldier projected onto the wall of an Afghan building in Qalat City, Afghanistan. The photograph encapsulates the essence of military presence and its impact on local communities. As the soldier patrols through this village in Zabul Province, his silhouette is cast against the weathered walls, creating a striking contrast between light and darkness. The anonymous figure represents not only one individual but also symbolizes the collective efforts of countless men and women serving in the U. S. Armed Forces. The surrounding walls serve as witnesses to history, reflecting both resilience and vulnerability within their ancient stones. They bear witness to a language that transcends words - one that communicates stories of sacrifice, hope, fear, and determination. This image invites us to contemplate the complexities inherent in conflict zones like Afghanistan. It prompts us to reflect upon our shared humanity amidst cultural differences and geopolitical tensions. Through photography's lens, we are reminded of how visual storytelling can bridge gaps between nations while fostering empathy for those affected by war. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our interconnectedness as global citizens who strive for peace amid turmoil.
