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.

The Royal Arrival at the Farnborough Railway Station, 1844
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Stephen Sly, we are transported back to a significant moment in history - the visit of French King Louis Philippe to Britain. The scene unfolds at the Farnborough Railway Station, where a crowd eagerly awaits the arrival of their esteemed guest. The image showcases a bustling platform filled with people from all walks of life. Men and women gather together, craning their necks for a glimpse of royalty. Flags flutter proudly in the wind, representing both Britain and France, symbolizing the unity between these two nations. Atop an elevated dais stands King Louis Philippe himself, exuding regal elegance as he steps off his steam locomotive. His presence commands attention as he is greeted by Queen Victoria herself – Empress of India and Queen of Great Britain and Ireland. This engraving captures not only a historic event but also highlights the significance of railways during this era. The railway station becomes more than just a location; it becomes a symbol of progress and modernity. Stephen Sly's meticulous attention to detail brings this momentous occasion to life once again. Through his lens, we witness an extraordinary convergence of cultures and power dynamics that shaped 19th-century Europe. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from "Illustrated London News" we are reminded that history is not merely confined within textbooks but can be vividly experienced through art like Sly's masterpiece.
