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
Bridge over the Grand Union Canal, Bayswater, London, 1801. This print takes us back to the early 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling waterways of historic London. The image showcases the first bridge at Paddington and an accommodation barge gracefully gliding down the picturesque Grand Union Canal towards Uxbridge. The aquatint technique used in this anonymous artwork brings out vibrant colors that beautifully depict the charm of British countryside life during that era. The composition captures not only the architectural marvel of the bridge but also highlights its significance as a vital transportation link for both people and goods. As we observe closely, passengers can be seen aboard various boats along with their belongings - a testament to how integral water transport was for travel and trade in those times. The towpath alongside is filled with travelers making their way on foot, adding an element of movement and liveliness to this snapshot from history. Preserved by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this remarkable piece invites us to reflect upon our rich heritage while appreciating how far we have come in terms of transportation and urban development. It serves as a reminder that beneath modern cityscapes lie stories waiting to be discovered.
