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
This vintage photopostcard captures a remarkable moment in the construction of the Panama Canal. Taken around 1910, it showcases a concrete mixing plant at Gatun, located in the Panama Canal Zone. The image provides a glimpse into the early engineering efforts and innovative techniques employed during this ambitious project. The photograph depicts an impressive scene with railroad tracks running alongside the concrete plant. This detail highlights the magnitude of materials required for such an undertaking. It is fascinating to witness how technology and infrastructure were combined to create this essential component of canal construction. The turn-of-the-century charm exuded by this print adds to its allure as a historical artifact. The black-and-white tones evoke nostalgia while emphasizing the significance of this engineering marvel that connected two oceans. As we admire this image, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic value but also recognize the immense human effort behind its creation. The dedication and ingenuity displayed by those involved in building one of mankind's greatest achievements are truly awe-inspiring.
