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
This photograph transports us back to the 17th of May, 1929, capturing a moment in time on an LCC (London County Council) estate at Castlenau, Barnes in London. The image showcases rows of council houses standing proudly against the backdrop of a serene landscape. Taken by J. Gaiger, this print from Fine Art Storehouse exudes a sense of history and nostalgia. The monochromatic format adds depth and character to the scene, emphasizing the architectural details and textures of these humble abodes. The composition invites viewers to ponder upon the significance of these houses within their social context - symbols of progress and community development during a transformative era for England. These homes were built with purpose; they provided affordable housing solutions for working-class families seeking stability amidst urbanization. Gaiger's skilled eye captures not only the physical structures but also hints at stories that lie behind each door – tales of dreams pursued, hardships overcome, and lives lived within these walls. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, our imagination is sparked as we contemplate how life might have unfolded for those who once called these houses home. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder that even seemingly ordinary scenes can hold extraordinary narratives waiting to be discovered.
