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
Skating at Night on the Serpentine, "Skates On, Sir!" captures a moment of winter magic in Victorian London. The enchanting scene depicted in this engraving by Frank Reynolds transports us to a time when the frozen waters of the Serpentine were alive with skaters gliding gracefully under the moonlit sky.
The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, from the intricate patterns etched into the ice to the delicate lace on the skater's boots. The figures are illuminated by lantern light, casting long shadows on the glistening surface below. In the distance, we can see other revelers enjoying their evening skate, adding to the sense of community and camaraderie that often accompanies such winter pastimes.
As we gaze upon this nostalgic image, we are reminded of simpler times when joy could be found in something as simple as a nighttime skate on a frozen lake. It serves as a reminder to embrace life's simple pleasures and take time to appreciate moments of beauty and wonder all around us.
"Skates On, Sir!" is not just a depiction of an evening skate; it is a window into another era—a glimpse into history that reminds us of our shared humanity and enduring love for life's small joys.
