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
Caption: This poignant print captures the aftermath of one of the first air raids during World War II, specifically at Dennis Poultry farm near Southfleet, Kent in July 1940. The devastating impact of war on rural communities is vividly depicted as the once idyllic landscape now bears witness to destruction and chaos. Bombs have left their mark, transforming this peaceful haven into a scene of desolation. The image showcases the resilience and fortitude of those living amidst the horrors of conflict. Despite facing immense challenges, survivors are seen coming together to salvage what remains from their beloved farmstead. Amidst twisted metal and rubble lie remnants of a life that was abruptly interrupted by enemy bombardment. This photograph serves as a stark reminder not only of the physical damage inflicted upon innocent civilians but also highlights their unwavering determination to rebuild shattered lives amid adversity. It symbolizes an entire nation's struggle against tyranny and stands as a testament to human spirit in times when hope seems scarce. Preserved by TopFoto's extensive archive collection, this historic snapshot offers us an invaluable glimpse into the realities faced by ordinary people during wartime. It serves as both a haunting reminder and an enduring tribute to all those who endured such hardships throughout World War II - reminding us never to forget their sacrifices for future generations' peace and freedom.
