- Fine Art Matt - with its distinctive smooth and chalky feel, this popular 308gsm Hahnemühle paper boasts a lightly defined surface that’s ultra-matte with rich colours, lending each printed image a three-dimensional appearance and impressive pictorial depth.
Your print is then mounted onto a rigid 3mm Dibond base which consists of a slim aluminium panel mounted onto a strong, light and flat black acrylic base. 12" x 8" and A4 prints are supplied with velcro pads for hanging. Larger sizes come fitted with adjustable wall hangers attached to a subframe to allow the print to be hung straight away to an existing nail or hook.
The print will be supplied without any border unless otherwise specified.
*If you choose optional lamination to protect your image this will be either a satin or gloss finish to match your chosen paper. Lamination is not recommended for Fine Art papers as it will mask the papers authentic texture.
The use of acid-free papers and archival inks ensures that your print will last a lifetime without fading or loss of color.
A winter afternoon on the rocky beach below Lindisfarne Castle on Holy Island, Northumberland (commonly referred to as just 'Lindisfarne') showing the rotten wooden stakes on the shoreline. Despite my efforts I cannot find out who put them there or why!
On a high outcrop of basalt and visible from miles around, it is not really a castle, but a 20th-century restoration of a Tudor fort created as a holiday home in 1902-3 for Edward Hudson, founder of Country Life magazine.
The first part of the fort to be built was an earthen bulwark, but it wasn't until the reign of Elizabeth I between 1565-1571 that proper defences were built in stone, using material from the ruins of nearby St Cuthbert's Priory. Lindisfarne Castle saw action only once, in 1715, when it was seized by supporters of James Stuart, the Old Pretender, although it was soon surrendered to government forces.
Holy Island itself is a tidal island joined to the mainland by a long causeway which is only accessible at low tide.
