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 showcases the historic John Street Methodist Church in New York City during the late 18th century. Standing proudly in the doorway is Peter Williams, an influential figure who served as the church sexton and later went on to found the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. The watercolor painting beautifully captures the architectural grandeur of this significant religious institution. The image transports us back to a time when Manhattan was still developing as a bustling city, with North America's first Methodist congregation finding its home on John Street. This place of worship became a beacon for both black and white congregants seeking spiritual solace and community. Peter Williams, depicted with dignity and grace, played an instrumental role in shaping not only the life of this church but also that of countless African Americans seeking religious freedom and empowerment. His legacy as a founder of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church remains etched into history. Through this fine art piece, we are reminded of how architecture can serve as more than just bricks and mortar; it represents hope, unity, and resilience. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene from centuries ago, we appreciate both the physical beauty of this building and its profound significance within American history.
