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 "Opening of the Hythe and Sandgate Railway by HRH the Duke of Teck" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image captures the ceremonial atmosphere surrounding the inauguration of this remarkable railway line in 1874. In the foreground, we see HRH the Duke of Teck standing tall and regal, presenting an address to a distinguished party gathered for this auspicious occasion. His presence exudes elegance and importance as he symbolically opens this new chapter in transportation. The scene is set against a backdrop that showcases both architectural marvels and natural beauty. To one side stands Hythe Church, its spire reaching towards the heavens amidst rolling hills and picturesque landscapes. On the other side lies Saltwood Castle, with its imposing structure adding grandeur to the event. As our eyes wander through this detailed engraving, we notice various elements that add depth to its narrative. Skulls are subtly placed within vault-like structures, perhaps alluding to historical significance or reminding viewers of mortality amidst progress. Overall, this print not only commemorates an important milestone in railway development but also offers glimpses into topography and architecture from another era. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity while capturing moments of celebration and ceremony that transcend time.
