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 captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the remarkable Aqueduct Over Irwell. Built in 1793 by the ingenious engineer James Brindley, this aqueduct stands as a testament to human ingenuity and engineering prowess. The Bridgewater Canal gracefully sails over the mighty River Irwell, defying gravity and seamlessly connecting two bodies of water. In this scene, a boat leisurely glides along the aqueduct's tranquil waters, accompanied by men, women, and even a child. Their presence adds life and scale to this architectural marvel that blends harmoniously with its natural surroundings. The vibrant colors of nature are mirrored in their clothing as they embark on an unforgettable journey through Lancashire's picturesque landscape. The painting by William Orme beautifully captures the essence of this historical landmark. Its meticulous details bring forth every intricate feature of Brindley's creation - from the sturdy arches supporting the canal to the flowing river beneath it. This image is not just about bricks and mortar; it symbolizes progress, innovation, and human connection with nature. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Storehouse's collection at Hulton Archive/Getty Images, we can't help but be transported back to a time when bridges were more than mere structures; they were gateways to new possibilities. Let us cherish these glimpses into our past that remind us how far we have come while inspiring us for what lies ahead.
