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 titled "Birds Eye view of Smithfield Market" takes us on a journey through time, offering a glimpse into the bustling streets of London's historic market district. Created by the talented artist Thomas Rowlandson in the late 18th century, this aquatint showcases his exceptional attention to detail and ability to capture the essence of urban life. From high above, we are granted an aerial perspective that allows us to witness the vibrant energy and activity taking place below. The intricate lines and delicate shading bring every corner of Smithfield Market to life, from its labyrinthine alleys filled with merchants and shoppers, to its grand architecture that stands as a testament to London's rich history. As we explore this image further, our eyes are drawn towards the countless stalls brimming with fresh produce and goods. The market is alive with movement - vendors haggling over prices, customers inspecting their purchases, and carts laden with wares navigating through narrow pathways. Rowlandson's meticulous craftsmanship transports us back in time, immersing us in an era where markets were not just places for commerce but also social hubs where people from all walks of life converged. This artwork serves as both a visual feast for art enthusiasts and a valuable historical document capturing an important aspect of London's cultural heritage.
