Collapsed Damaged Derelict Remains
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 print captures a fragment of the old London Wall, dating back to 1796. Painted with watercolors on paper by William Capon, this artwork showcases the artist's keen eye for detail and historical preservation. The image takes us back in time to Tower Hill, where remnants of this ancient wall still stand today. The scene is both haunting and beautiful, as nature intertwines with man-made ruins. A majestic tree stands tall beside the collapsed and damaged remains of what was once a formidable structure. The juxtaposition between the strength of nature and the fragility of human creations is evident in every brushstroke. Capon's skillful use of watercolors brings life to these forgotten ruins, evoking a sense of nostalgia and curiosity about London's rich history. As we gaze upon this print, we can't help but wonder about the stories that lie within these walls - tales from centuries past that have shaped our present-day cityscape. This print serves as a reminder that even in decay and dereliction, there is beauty to be found. It urges us to appreciate our surroundings and cherish the remnants of our past. With its intricate details and historical significance, this artwork invites us on a journey through time while reminding us that history never truly fades away; it lingers in fragments like these for generations to come.
