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 photograph taken by E. Bacon in 1919, we are transported back to the bustling scene at Waterloo Station in London. The image captures a moment frozen in time, as a lady patiently waits for her train amidst a stack of luggage and her loyal canine companion. With an air of elegance, the woman sits on a tree trunk with her walking stick by her side, engrossed in writing a letter. Her military uniform suggests she may have been bidding farewell to loved ones or recounting tales from afar during the post-war period. The composition beautifully juxtaposes the stationary figure against the dynamic backdrop of trains and railway tracks. As steam billows from locomotives, one can almost hear the sounds of whistles blowing and wheels screeching against metal rails. This photo is not only visually striking but also evokes emotions tied to travel and adventure. It transports us back to an era when handwritten letters were cherished means of communication, capturing moments that could be shared across distances. Evident through every detail captured within this frame - from the lady's carefully chosen attire to her meticulously packed trunks - is an undeniable sense of anticipation mingled with nostalgia. This image serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst busy train stations, there are stories waiting to be told and connections waiting to be made.
