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 photograph captures a significant moment in history - the demolition of Vauxhall Bridge in 1898. Taken by an English photographer from the 19th century, this print showcases the skilled craftsmanship and engineering prowess that went into constructing such magnificent structures. In this particular scene, workers can be seen posing for the picture, providing a glimpse into their daily lives during this monumental task. The image offers a fascinating insight into the laborious process of dismantling a bridge piece by piece. Vauxhall Bridge was located in Lambeth, Metropolitan Borough of London. Its removal marked both an end and a new beginning for transportation in the city. As non-habitable structures like bridges play an essential role in connecting communities and facilitating movement, their construction or destruction often holds great significance. The timeless quality of photography adds to the historical charm of this image. It transports us back to a time when manual labor was at its peak, showcasing human determination and ingenuity. This print is part of Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder. While it cannot be used for commercial purposes due to copyright restrictions, it serves as a visual reminder of our ever-evolving urban landscape and how progress shapes our cities over time.
