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
This print captures a heartwarming moment during World War I. It showcases convalescent soldiers from the Summerdown Convalescent Hospital in Eastbourne, England, coming together to put on a pantomime. The entire production, including music and scenery, is the remarkable creation of these brave officers and men. In this image taken on 9th January 1918 by Alfieri, we see injured and wounded soldiers taking center stage as they don vibrant costumes depicting characters like Harlequin. Despite their injuries and the hardships they have endured, these resilient individuals find solace in the world of theater. The photograph not only highlights their dedication to recuperation but also serves as a testament to their indomitable spirit amidst the chaos of war. Through this performance, these convalescents showcase their determination to heal both physically and emotionally. It is truly inspiring to witness how art can provide an avenue for expression even in times of adversity. This snapshot encapsulates the power of camaraderie among soldiers who have found joy through creativity while recovering from battle wounds. Alfieri's skillful capture transports us back to this significant era in history when healing took many forms - one being the magic that unfolded on stage at Eastbourne's pantomime.
