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 takes us back in time to the enchanting John Rylands Library in Manchester, England. Captured by the talented photographer Bedford Lemere in 1900, this image showcases an interior view along one of the gallery corridors at clerestory level. The library's Victorian Gothic architecture is on full display, with its intricate details and soaring arches evoking a sense of grandeur and elegance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a bygone era where knowledge was revered and libraries were sanctuaries for intellectual pursuits. The play of light filtering through the clerestory windows adds an ethereal quality to the scene, illuminating rows upon rows of books that line the shelves. The John Rylands Library stands as a testament to architectural brilliance and cultural heritage. Its imposing presence commands attention while simultaneously inviting visitors to explore its vast collection of literary treasures. Each step taken along these gallery corridors must have been filled with anticipation and wonder as scholars sought wisdom within these hallowed walls. Bedford Lemere's expert eye captures not only the physical beauty of this space but also encapsulates a moment frozen in time - a snapshot from history that allows us to appreciate both the craftsmanship involved in creating such an extraordinary building and the significance it holds within our collective memory. This print serves as a reminder that some places transcend their mere physical existence; they become symbols of human achievement and resilience throughout generations.
