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
Step back in time to the bustling streets of Covent Garden, Westminster, London in 1777. This print by artist Edward Rooker transports us to a vibrant era of British history. The scene captures the essence of daily life with its diverse cast of characters and activities. In this snapshot, we witness a lively street market filled with various street sellers showcasing their wares. Among them is a shoe shiner diligently polishing footwear for passersby, adding an air of sophistication to the scene. Shoppers can be seen browsing through the stalls, captivated by the array of goods on offer. At the heart of it all stands a sedan carrier taking a well-deserved rest from his duties. His presence adds an element of grandeur amidst the hustle and bustle. To his left, a young boy joyfully bowls a hoop down the cobblestone street, bringing an innocent charm to this historic moment frozen in time. Edward Rooker's meticulous engraving skillfully captures every detail - from the intricate architecture that lines Covent Garden's piazza to its iconic colonnade. The color palette chosen brings warmth and vibrancy to this snapshot from 18th century England. This remarkable piece is housed at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, offering visitors an opportunity to step into history and experience Covent Garden as it once was.
