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 detail from a facsimile copy of Wenceslaus Hollar's engraving, "View of London, published 1647" takes us on a journey back in time to the bustling streets and iconic landmarks of seventeenth-century London. The print showcases an aerial perspective that allows us to marvel at the city's architectural splendor and its close relationship with the River Thames. In this particular section, our eyes are drawn to several notable features. The majestic Royal Exchange stands proudly amidst the urban landscape, symbolizing London's status as a global trading hub. Nearby, we catch glimpses of historic sites such as Cole Harbour and Lorentz Poultney, reminding us of the city's rich maritime heritage. The image also offers a glimpse into daily life along the riverbanks. The Old Swan Inn exudes charm with its timber-framed facade overlooking the bustling waterway. Further downstream lies Southwark, where Shakespearean theaters once entertained crowds eager for drama and spectacle. As we explore further into this intricate etching, Guildhall and Fishmongers Hall come into view – grand structures that have witnessed centuries of history unfold within their walls. Through this remarkable facsimile copy by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate Hollar's meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture both grandeur and intimacy in his work. This print serves as a window into London's past—a testament to its enduring beauty and significance throughout the ages.
