Cattle Trough Drinking Fountain
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
This print captures the essence of a bygone era, showcasing the iconic Cattle Trough and Drinking Fountain DP232797 in Hampstead, Camden. Standing proudly against the backdrop of Greater London, this historic structure was constructed for the Metropolitan Drinking Fountain and Cattle Trough Association (MDFCTA), an organization that played a significant role in providing over 1000 such facilities across the country. The image offers a general view of the trough from the east, highlighting its intricate design and architectural beauty. The attention to detail is evident as one can appreciate every curve and contour meticulously crafted into this functional masterpiece. The juxtaposition between the sturdy cattle trough on one side and the elegant drinking fountain on another creates a harmonious balance within this urban landscape. As we gaze upon this photograph, it transports us back to an era when these fountains served as vital sources of refreshment for both humans and animals alike. It reminds us of simpler times when communities came together around these public amenities to quench their thirsts or provide respite for their livestock during long journeys. Chris Redgrave's skillful lens has immortalized not just a physical structure but also an important piece of history that symbolizes compassion towards all living beings. This print serves as a poignant reminder of our responsibility to preserve our heritage while ensuring access to basic necessities remains at the heart of any civilized society.
