Almshouse Charity Courtyard Hospice
23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 engraving takes us back to the early 19th century, offering a glimpse into the Ironmongers Company Almshouses on Kingsland Road in Hackney, London. The image showcases the remarkable architecture of this historical building, which has since been transformed into the Geffrye Museum. Established through Sir Robert Geffrye's generous bequest, these almshouses have served as a haven for those in need since their inception. The photograph highlights the imposing tower that stands tall against the sky, symbolizing hope and protection for its residents. The exterior of the almshouses exudes an air of grandeur and elegance with its intricate details and well-preserved facade. A charming courtyard can be seen at the forefront of this print, inviting viewers to imagine strolling through its peaceful surroundings. This image not only captures a moment frozen in time but also tells a story of charity and compassion. It serves as a reminder that even amidst bustling city life, there are places where kindness prevails and support is provided for those less fortunate. As we gaze upon this stunning engraving from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back to an era when community care was paramount. It encourages us to reflect on how such institutions continue to shape our society today by providing shelter and solace for those who need it most.
