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 print titled "PROVIDENCE: TRAIN STATION" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Providence, Rhode Island in 1852. The image showcases a street cleaner diligently going about his work, as he sprays water from his cart in front of the magnificent railroad depot. The architecture of the train station is truly remarkable, displaying elements of Romanesque design that were popular during that era. Its grandeur stands tall amidst the busy cityscape, serving as a symbol of progress and connectivity. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness an ordinary yet essential task being carried out by the street cleaner. With precision and care, he maneuvers his cart while spraying water onto the dusty ground. This act not only cleanses the street but also adds a touch of freshness to an otherwise chaotic scene. The wood engraving technique used for this print enhances its vintage charm and authenticity. It captures every intricate detail with finesse, allowing us to appreciate both the architectural beauty and daily life activities unfolding on Providence's streets over a century ago. "PROVIDENCE: TRAIN STATION" serves as a visual reminder of our shared history and how even mundane tasks like street cleaning played their part in shaping cities like Providence into what they are today.
