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
Two postmen stroll down Royal York Crescent in Bristol, 29th May 1954. This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the charm and character of Bristol's streets in the mid-20th century. The image, taken by renowned photographer Joseph McKeown for Picture Post magazine, is part of a series exploring the best and worst of British cities. In this particular shot, we see two postal workers leisurely making their way down the historic Royal York Crescent. With their post bags slung over their shoulders and straight faces focused on their task at hand, they epitomize the dedicated work ethic that has been synonymous with Britain's postal service for generations. The composition of the photograph is strikingly beautiful - a perfect blend of landscape format and slow walking subjects. It invites viewers to take a step back in time and immerse themselves in the bustling streets of Bristol during an era when mail was still delivered by hand. This archival piece not only showcases McKeown's exceptional talent but also serves as a reminder of how much our cities have evolved over time. It evokes nostalgia while celebrating an essential aspect of everyday life – mail delivery – which continues to play a vital role even in today's digital age.
