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
The Lambeth Ragged School, captured in this 1851 photo print, stands as a testament to the philanthropic efforts of Lord Shaftesbury and the Ragged School Union. Located on Newport Street in Lambeth, London, this school was established with the noble aim of providing free education to working-class children. The image showcases the architectural features of the building, highlighting its grandeur and significance. The imposing columns and pedimented portico give it an air of importance and dignity. The vibrant colors bring life to the scene, evoking a sense of hope and possibility for those who entered through its doors. In 19th century Britain, access to education was often limited for children from lower socio-economic backgrounds. However, Lord Shaftesbury recognized that education was crucial for social progress and sought to bridge this gap by establishing schools like Lambeth Ragged School. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of the transformative power of education. It represents an era when individuals like Lord Shaftesbury took it upon themselves to uplift their communities by offering opportunities that were previously denied. Today, this image is preserved at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery as part of our shared heritage. It serves as a poignant reminder that every child deserves access to quality education regardless of their background or circumstances.
