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 photograph features Peter Knowles, a legendary footballer who graced the pitch for Wolverhampton Wanderers during the 1940s and 1960s. The image, expertly captured by renowned sports photographer Peter Robinson, encapsulates the raw passion and determination that defined Knowles' illustrious career. Born in Wolverhampton in 1923, Peter Knowles joined the Wolves academy at the tender age of 15. His natural talent and dedication quickly shone through, and he made his debut for the first team in 1942. Despite the challenges of playing during wartime, Knowles' skill and tenacity helped lead Wolverhampton Wanderers to several victories and accolades. In the 1949-50 season, Knowles' exceptional performance earned him a place in the Football League XI team, a testament to his growing reputation as one of the best wingers in the league. Over the next decade, he continued to dazzle audiences with his lightning-fast speed, precise ball control, and unerring accuracy from the penalty spot. The photograph showcases Knowles in his prime, with a focused expression and the ball poised at his feet. The stark contrast between the pristine white ball and the dark, textured background adds a sense of depth and drama to the image. The crowd in the background, a sea of faces, adds to the sense of excitement and anticipation. Peter Robinson's masterful composition and lighting further enhance the photograph's impact, capturing the raw emotion and energy of a football match in the 1960s. This timeless image serves as a reminder of Peter Knowles' indelible legacy as a Wolverhampton Wanderers footballing icon.
