Content that stretches beyond the grid

Hi - I want to place an image next to a block of text side by side.

The gird I'm working to is about 1350px wide on desktop.

I want the image to be completely visible when the browser is stretched wide but partially hidden if the browser width is reduced below 1350px. Similar to the background images on this page: https://www.apple.com/uk/shop/gifts

I thought about setting it as a background image but I can't get the image to align where I want it to.

Any ideas?

Cheers Mike

This is the page I want this layout for: www.reddgate.com/work/ATT-Uverse.html

I've had to slice the laptop image at the top in half so it doesn't mess up the grid.

To see an image partially hidden only when browser width is reduced below 1350px you may use @media () {}, which is Media Quarry. If you use floats to place image next to text it may be worth using .clearfix.
