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
In this photo print, taken on the 24th of February in 1927, we are transported back to a moment in time at GWR's Swindon works. A group of bright-eyed engineering students from Eton College stand together, their faces filled with awe and curiosity as they witness an extraordinary sight unfold before them. The star class engine Knight Templar (no. 4019), a magnificent steam locomotive, is being carefully lifted by skilled workers. The composition of the image beautifully captures the landscape format, emphasizing both the grandeur of the locomotive and the vastness of its surroundings. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to this snapshot from history. Evidently fascinated by machinery and innovation, these young men have gathered here to witness firsthand the marvels of engineering that were shaping their world. Their expressions reveal a mix of admiration and wonderment as they observe every detail with keen interest. Photographer E. Bacon skillfully documents this significant moment in British industrial history through his lens for Topical Press Agency/Getty Images. This remarkable photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity while also capturing a sense of camaraderie among these future engineers. As we gaze upon this evocative scene frozen in time, it reminds us not only of our collective progress but also highlights how education has played an integral role in shaping generations who continue to push boundaries and strive for innovation even today.
