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 black and white etching by Joseph Pennell, titled "PENNELL: NEW YORK, 1908" offers a glimpse into the bustling cityscape of early 20th century New York. The focal point of the print is the magnificent West Street building, which proudly stands tall amidst the ever-growing skyline. Pennell's attention to detail is evident in his intricate engravings that beautifully depict the architectural grandeur of this iconic structure. The image transports us back in time to an era when New York City was rapidly evolving into a metropolis filled with promise and ambition. As we gaze upon this etching, we can almost hear the sounds of horse-drawn carriages clattering on cobblestone streets and feel the energy emanating from ships docked at nearby piers. Pennell's mastery lies not only in capturing physical structures but also in conveying a sense of dynamism within his artwork. The juxtaposition between towering skyscrapers and smaller buildings creates a visual narrative that speaks to both progress and tradition. This print serves as a testament to Joseph Pennell's artistic prowess as well as an homage to New York City's rich history. It reminds us that even though time may pass and landscapes may change, there will always be enduring symbols like the West Street building that stand as witnesses to our collective human endeavor.
