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
William III, Prince of Orange (1650-1702), also known as William of Orange or William II of England, is depicted in this powerful and iconic print commemorating his victory at the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. The battle took place on July 12, 1690, near the River Boyne in County Meath, Ireland, and marked a turning point in the War of the League of Augsburg, also known as the Nine Years' War. William III, a Dutch stadtholder, had been invited by the English Parliament to depose his Catholic cousin, King James II, who had been ruling England since 1685. James II, who was also the King of Ireland, had been perceived as a threat due to his Catholic faith and his efforts to repeal the Protestant succession laws. William III, who was a Protestant, had the support of a coalition of European powers, including the Dutch Republic, England, and the Holy Roman Empire. The Battle of the Boyne was a decisive victory for William III, who defeated James II's forces and secured his claim to the English, Scottish, and Irish thrones. The battle is commemorated in this print, which shows William III on horseback, dressed in armor and brandishing a sword, leading his troops into battle. The print also depicts the orange standard, which became a symbol of the Protestant cause and the House of Orange. The Battle of the Boyne marked the end of the old regime in Ireland and the beginning of a new era of Protestant rule. It also strengthened the ties between England, Scotland, and the Netherlands and helped to establish the Protestant succession in the British Isles. The print is a testament to William III's military prowess and his role as a key figure in European history.
