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 engraving, titled "A Map of Limehouse and Rotherhithe, London, 1746" takes us on a journey through the bustling city outskirts and vibrant docklands of 18th-century London. Created by John Rocque, this historical print offers a fascinating glimpse into the past. As our eyes wander across the intricately detailed map, we are transported to an era where shipwrights skillfully crafted vessels in lime kiln yards and timber was loaded onto ships for shipping. The names of various stairs - Hall Stairs, Queen Stairs, Godwell Stairs - evoke images of bustling activity along the river Thames. The map guides us through notable landmarks such as Limehouse Hole and Cuckolds Point while revealing streets like Rose Lane, White Horse Road, Jamaica Street, Lavender Street – each with its own story to tell. We can almost imagine the lively scenes that once unfolded within these now-historic streets. Notably depicted are significant locations that have transformed over time: Canada Water, West India Quay, Canary Wharf – areas that have evolved into thriving modern-day districts. This engraving serves as a reminder of how cities evolve and adapt to changing times. With its meticulous detail and rich history encapsulated within its lines and symbols, this print is not just a mere representation but rather a portal into London's maritime past. It invites us to explore the interconnectedness between trade routes and communities that shaped one of the world's greatest cities.
