St. Saviour's Church, Clapham, [London], 1864. The new church in Cedars-road, Clapham-common was built by the Rev. Wentworth Bowyer, Rector of Clapham, at a cost of about £10, 000. The architect is Mr. James Knowles, jun. The style is Second Pointed. The building is cruciform, its length being 120ft. and its width 49 ft.; while the length of the transepts is 77 ft. It has a large central tower, 120 ft. high and 30 ft. square. The whole is built of Kentish rag, with Bath stone dressings, the interior piers being of Portland stone. The stained-glass windows are by Messrs. Clayton and Bell. In this church, placed temporarily under the tower, is an altar-tomb, bearing on it a recumbent effigy of Mrs. Bowyer, co-foundress of the church, who died just before its completion. The carving of the tomb, the pulpit, and the font, which are all of stone, is very good, and the general effect of the interior is remarkably fine. Of the external appearance our Engraving gives a faithful representation'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864

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.

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.
