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 captures the treacherous ice floes that continue to pose a threat to fishing fleets and colliers in the North Sea. Despite the dangers, the Royal Navy's Fishing Protection Control remains vigilant, constantly monitoring the shipping lanes and adding an extra layer of protection to safeguard against poachers. Taken from HMS Mariner, which recently arrived in Hull, this image showcases the ship bravely navigating its way through one of many ice floes found in the north-eastern part of the North Sea. The watchman on board diligently scans the horizon with binoculars, ensuring no hidden obstacles lie ahead. Dating back to March 2nd, 1947, this photograph serves as a reminder of a time when fishermen had to venture into icy waters for their livelihoods. It encapsulates both their resilience and determination to fish where they knew they would find success. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this portrait of industry at sea.
