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 in time to the bustling streets of Wellington, New Zealand circa 1925. The focal point of the image is the magnificent Old Government Buildings on Lambton Quay, standing tall with its grand architecture. A male and a female figure can be seen walking along the street, adding a sense of life to this snapshot from history. The scene is filled with various modes of transportation characteristic of that era. A bicycle leans against a lamppost, while a tram glides down the road alongside horse-drawn carts and early automobiles. This eclectic mix reflects the evolving nature of transport during this period. Beyond capturing everyday street scenes, this photograph also hints at the political significance associated with these buildings. As government headquarters, they served as an emblematic symbol for politics and governance in New Zealand. The General Photographic Agency skillfully captured not only architectural beauty but also encapsulated an entire era's essence within one frame. With its horizontal composition and attention to detail, this image transports viewers back in time to experience firsthand what life was like in Australasia nearly a century ago.
