31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
is a captivating print captured by the pioneering photographer William Henry Fox Talbot. This stunning image, taken in the 19th century at Lacock Abbey in Wiltshire, England, showcases Talbot's mastery of the calotype negative technique. In this photograph, we are transported to a picturesque country house with its grand doorway and charming climbing plants adorning its walls. A lone man stands proudly on a ladder against the backdrop of this stately home, symbolizing human ambition and our desire to reach new heights. Talbot's composition skillfully combines elements of nature and architecture, highlighting his keen eye for detail. The intricate textures of both the building and plant life are beautifully captured through his lens. As one gazes upon this photogravure portrait, it becomes evident that Talbot was not only an accomplished photographer but also a visionary artist. His work paved the way for future generations of photographers and left an indelible mark on Victorian photography. "The Ladder" serves as a testament to Talbot's legacy as one of history's most influential photographers. It invites us to contemplate notions of progress, exploration, and our connection with nature – themes that continue to resonate today. This exquisite piece from Heritage Images allows us to appreciate Talbot's artistic vision while immersing ourselves in the rich history preserved within each frame.
