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 captures the grandeur of Montagu House in Bloomsbury during the 18th century. Originally purchased in 1754 as the first home of the British Museum, this stately building holds great historical significance. In 1757, its gardens were opened to the public, making it a popular destination even before visitors were allowed access to the museum's collections. The symmetrical design of Montagu House is showcased beautifully in this image, highlighting its architectural elegance. The concept of this magnificent structure is further emphasized by its exterior features and well-maintained landscape. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost imagine horse-drawn carriages passing through Great Russell Street outside. Located in London, England, Montagu House stood tall for centuries until it gradually made way for the present-day buildings that now house the British Museum between 1823 and 1852. This monochrome print allows us to appreciate both its historical importance and aesthetic beauty. The credit for capturing this remarkable image goes to an unknown creator but was preserved by E Beresford Chancellor. Through their lens, they have immortalized a piece of history that continues to fascinate us today.
