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.

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 print showcases a remarkable engraving titled "Sketches of Brussels and the Field of Waterloo" by an English School artist from the 19th century. The image takes us on a visual journey through time, offering glimpses into the enchanting city of Brussels and its iconic landmarks. The foreground reveals old houses lining the picturesque Grande Place, their facades exuding a sense of history and charm. Towering above them is the magnificent Hotel de Ville, an architectural masterpiece that stands as a testament to Belgium's rich heritage. Further in the distance, we catch sight of the majestic Cathedral of St Gudule, one of many places of worship dotting this vibrant city. As our gaze shifts towards the background, we are transported to another significant location - the Field of Waterloo. This historic site witnessed one of Europe's most pivotal battles and serves as a poignant reminder of Belgium's role in shaping European history. The composition also highlights various municipal buildings and town halls scattered throughout Brussels' landscape, showcasing both its administrative importance and architectural diversity. Hougoumont Park adds a touch of natural beauty amidst these man-made marvels.
