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 captures a pivotal moment in the U. S. Army's mission in Afghanistan. Taken on December 12,2009, it showcases a U. S. Army CH-47 Chinook helicopter resupplying Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 17th Infantry Regiment at their outpost in Baba Saheb Ghar, located within the rugged Arghandab River Valley of Kandahar province. The image portrays the sheer power and versatility of this iconic rotorcraft as it hovers above the rough terrain with its distinctive tandem rotors slicing through the sky. The low angle view emphasizes its massive size and highlights its ability to navigate even the most challenging landscapes. In this scene, a pallet loaded with vital supplies is suspended beneath the helicopter by a sling load system. This efficient method allows for precise delivery of cargo to remote locations inaccessible by ground vehicles due to rocky terrains or hostile environments. The presence of this CH-47 Chinook represents not only an essential lifeline for troops stationed at Baba Saheb Ghar but also symbolizes the unwavering commitment and support provided by Task Force Talon and the entire U. S. Armed Forces throughout their deployment in Afghanistan. This awe-inspiring photograph serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and military precision while capturing one small part of an immense operation that keeps our soldiers equipped and connected amidst challenging circumstances in far-flung corners of the world.
