23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 in 1872, a little girl stands outside a pet shop near St Giles In The Fields, London's vibrant West End. Her eyes are fixed on the cages filled with various animals, her wistful gaze revealing a longing for companionship and playfulness. Dressed in simple attire, she clutches onto a box tied to a piece of string, perhaps carrying her treasured possessions or even hoping to acquire one of the creatures behind the glass panes. The bustling street around her showcases people going about their daily activities - some shopping, others engaged in conversation or simply passing by. The image captures not only the innocence and curiosity of childhood but also highlights the social dynamics of Victorian-era London. As shoeshine men gather nearby forming an impromptu group, it is evident that life was tough for many during this time. This medium shot beautifully encapsulates both human and animal subjects within its frame – reminding us of our innate desire for connection and companionship. It serves as a poignant reminder that amidst the hustle and bustle of city life, we all seek solace in different forms; be it through pets or cherished objects that bring us joy. Preserved by Hulton Archive/Getty Images, this historical snapshot offers us an intimate glimpse into London's past while evoking emotions that transcend time itself.
