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.

The County Council Elections for London
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the local elections held in London during 1889. The image showcases the vibrant atmosphere of democracy, with various elements capturing the essence of this significant event. In the foreground, we see a lady voter wearing a satisfied expression on her face as she proudly displays her sandwich board adorned with political slogans. Her careful consideration and determination to exercise her right to vote are evident, symbolizing the growing importance of women's participation in politics during this era. Beside her stands a working man voter, his weathered face reflecting years of hard work and dedication. His determined gaze reveals his commitment to making an informed decision about who will represent him at the local government level. The scene is bustling with activity as other voters can be seen in the background, some engaged in lively discussions while others appear indifferent or disinterested. This diversity highlights both the engagement and apathy that often accompany elections. William Douglas Almond masterfully captures not only the physicality but also the spirit of these county council elections. Through his intricate engravings, he invites us into this historical moment where individuals from all walks of life come together to shape their city's future through their votes. This print serves as a reminder of our democratic heritage and encourages us to appreciate our ability to participate actively in shaping society today.
