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 takes us back to the bustling construction site of the Northern Outfall Sewer in London, circa 1860. Designed by the visionary engineer Joseph Bazalgette in the 1850s, this monumental sewage system was a testament to human ingenuity and progress during an era marked by rapid urbanization. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a large group of men diligently working amidst towering concrete mills. The sheer scale of the sewer project is awe-inspiring, as it required immense manpower and resources to bring Bazalgette's vision to life. These workers, clad in their rugged attire, epitomize determination and resilience as they navigate through what must have been challenging conditions. The significance of this photograph extends beyond its historical context; it serves as a poignant reminder of the unsung heroes who labored tirelessly behind-the-scenes to improve public health and sanitation for generations to come. Their efforts laid the foundation for modern infrastructure systems that we often take for granted today. Otto Herschan's skilled composition captures both the grandeur of this engineering marvel and the camaraderie among these construction workers. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time, gaining a glimpse into an era where progress was measured not only by architectural achievements but also by societal advancements that improved countless lives.
