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 chromo lithograph transports us back in time to the bustling Baker Street Station of the Metropolitan Railway in 19th century London. The print, created by Kell Brothers, showcases their exceptional talent for capturing intricate details and vibrant colors. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are immediately drawn to the platform teeming with passengers adorned in fashionable attire of the era. Men donning top hats and tailcoats mingle with women elegantly dressed in long skirts and bonnets, creating a vivid snapshot of Victorian fashion. The station itself exudes grandeur and sophistication, with its ornate architecture and meticulous craftsmanship on full display. Every archway, pillar, and window is meticulously depicted through expert engraving techniques that bring depth and texture to the image. The underground railway system was still a novelty during this period, making Baker Street Station an exciting hub of activity. This lithograph captures not only the physical beauty of the station but also provides a glimpse into daily life at that time – people rushing to catch their trains or engaging in animated conversations while waiting. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can now appreciate this remarkable piece as it offers a unique window into London's rich history. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and technological progress – reminding us how far we have come while honoring our past.
