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 albumen print titled "A Street in Hong Kong" takes us back to the bustling streets of 19th century China. The sepia-toned photograph, captured by an Italian School artist, offers a glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of this English colony. As we delve into the image, we are immediately drawn to the array of shops lining both sides of the road. From traditional Chinese establishments to Western-influenced stores, this street epitomizes the cultural fusion that defined Hong Kong during its colonial era. The presence of rickshaws and palanquins further emphasizes the diversity in means of transport at that time. These modes served as vital passenger transportation for locals and foreigners alike, weaving through a sea of people and litter along this busy thoroughfare. The composition exudes a sense of energy and movement; it captures a moment frozen in time amidst the constant flow of life on these streets. The meticulous detailing invites us to explore every corner, from architectural elements to glimpses into daily activities unfolding within each shopfront. With its historical significance and artistic allure, this photograph from Museo di Storia della Fotografia Fratelli Alinari transports us back to an era where East met West in one dynamic cityscape. It serves as a testament not only to early photography but also to Hong Kong's rich cultural heritage that continues to thrive today.
