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 print showcases the contrasting beauty of London's oldest and newest public buildings as seen from Tower Bridge in the 1930s. The focal point is the iconic White Tower, a formidable fortress built by William the Conqueror in the early 1080s. Standing proudly on the banks of River Thames, it exudes an air of historical significance. In the foreground, barges gracefully glide along the river while cannons stand guard on its shores. To the left of this ancient marvel stands another architectural gem: The Port of London Authority building at Tower Hill. Designed by Sir Edwin Cooper and constructed between 1912-1922, it represents a testament to modernity amidst centuries-old structures. This striking contrast captures both London's rich history and its progressive spirit. The photograph is taken from "Wonderful London, Volume 1" edited by Arthur St John Adcock, offering readers a glimpse into this magnificent cityscape during that era. It transports viewers back in time to witness not only these remarkable landmarks but also experience life along one of England's most famous waterways. With its monochrome charm and impeccable composition, this image serves as a reminder of London's enduring allure as a tourist attraction for visitors worldwide. Whether drawn to its medieval fortifications or contemporary architecture, travelers are captivated by this vibrant city where tradition seamlessly blends with innovation.
