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.

The First Trams in London, 1861 - A Glimpse into the Victorian Era
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the introduction of trams in London. Captured around 1920, this image showcases the first trams that revolutionized public transportation in the bustling city. Set against the backdrop of Hyde Park Corner, we witness a scene filled with excitement and curiosity. The grand triumphal arch looms majestically overhead, symbolizing an era of progress and innovation. People from all walks of life gather around this architectural marvel, eagerly awaiting their turn to board these new-fangled vehicles. The atmosphere is buzzing with anticipation as horse-drawn trams line up along Victoria Street. Clad in their Victorian attire, men and women stand patiently on the sidewalk while others scurry across the road. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless charm to this snapshot from another century. As we delve deeper into this historical gem, it becomes evident that Walter Hutchinson's illustration has beautifully captured not just a mode of transport but also a glimpse into daily life during the 19th century. This print serves as a reminder of how far our urban landscapes have evolved since those early days when trams were introduced to London's streets. With its rich heritage and architectural features still standing tall today, this photograph invites us to appreciate both past achievements and present advancements in transportation systems worldwide.
