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 titled "DORÉ: LONDON, 1872. Houndsditch" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Victorian London. The image is a wood engraving after Gustave Doré's original artwork, skillfully capturing the essence of daily life in this vibrant city. In this particular street scene, we are transported to Houndsditch, where a sense of both chaos and charm permeates the air. The narrow road is filled with people from all walks of life - peasants going about their daily chores, businessmen hurrying along on their way to work, and children playing amidst the commotion. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable; every building facade tells its own story with intricate architectural features that reflect the era's grandeur. Despite being labeled as a slum area at that time, there is an undeniable beauty in the worn-out buildings and cobblestone streets. "DORÉ: LONDON, 1872. Houndsditch" serves as a visual pilgrimage into history, allowing us to witness firsthand what life was like during late 19th-century England. It reminds us of how far society has come while also highlighting the struggles faced by those living in impoverished areas. This Granger Collection print captures not only an artistic masterpiece but also provides valuable insight into English culture and urban development during this period.
