23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 "Reminiscences of an Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race: Hoisting the winning colours" transports us back to a momentous day in sporting history. Created by Sydney Prior Hall in 1884, this print captures the exhilaration and triumph that filled the air during the renowned Oxford and Cambridge Boat Race. In this scene, we witness a pivotal moment as a victorious crew hoists their vibrant colors high above their boat. The flag flutters proudly against the backdrop of a bustling river, adorned with other rowing vessels and a sturdy tugboat. The energy is palpable as spectators line the banks, eagerly cheering on their favorite teams. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in this historic event. We can almost feel the tension emanating from each rower's strained muscles as they propel themselves forward with unwavering determination. Beyond its representation of sport, this engraving also serves as a window into late 19th-century entertainment culture. It reminds us of how these races were not merely athletic competitions but grand spectacles that captivated audiences from all walks of life. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection, we are reminded of both the timeless allure of competitive sports and our shared human desire for victory and celebration.
