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 print titled "Under Runcorn Viaduct Manchester Ship Canal, 1893" takes us back to the late 19th century in Manchester, UK. The artwork, created by William Simpson, showcases his incredible talent for capturing architectural marvels and landscapes. In this piece, we are transported to the picturesque scene of Runcorn Viaduct towering over the Manchester Ship Canal. A ship gracefully sails through the canal in the middle distance while a man, woman, and child leisurely stroll along its banks on the left side. The viaduct's grandeur is emphasized by its iron structure that spans across the canal. Simpson's use of pen with wash on paper adds depth and texture to this stunning drawing. His attention to detail brings every element of this composition to life - from the intricate lines depicting railway tracks on top of the viaduct to delicate shading that highlights each figure present. As we admire this work of art from Ironbridge Gorge Museum Trust's collection in Telford, Shropshire, we can't help but be transported back in time. This piece not only captures a moment frozen in history but also serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ability to create magnificent structures that stand against time. The combination of architecture, nature (represented by both river and landscape), transportation elements like railways and ships make this artwork an enchanting portrayal of industrial progress during that era. It reminds us how interconnected these elements were in shaping society at large.
