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 diagram depicts the intricate workings of a Jacquard loom, a groundbreaking textile machinery invention from the 1830s to 1840s. The Jacquard loom revolutionized the textile industry by enabling the production of complex patterns and designs in textiles, previously only achievable through the labor-intensive process of hand weaving. The diagram, originally from a French textbook titled "Cours de la Theorie concernant la Fabrication des Etoffes de Soie... eleve de J. B. La Serve," showcases the mechanics of the Jacquard loom with remarkable detail. The illustration highlights the rocker or lever (No. 2) that threads a chain, which is fixed to the body of the press (a a). The upper end of the iron elbow (No. 2) is connected to a crosspiece of the leaf of the mechanism (c, c), while the lower end terminates in a knob, in which the pulley (no. 3) slides when the lever operates. This diagram is an invaluable piece of industrial heritage, showcasing the intricacies of the Jacquard loom and its role in the textile industry during the 19th century. The monochrome, sepia-toned image adds to its historical charm, transporting us back to a time when textile manufacturing underwent a significant transformation, paving the way for the Industrial Revolution.
