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 showcases William Erasmus Darwin, the son of renowned scientist Charles Darwin, against the backdrop of Down House in Kent. The image captures a moment frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the life and lineage of one of history's most influential families. William Erasmus Darwin, often overshadowed by his father's monumental achievements, stands tall with an air of quiet confidence. His features reflect both familiarity and individuality as he gazes directly into the lens. It is evident that this photograph was taken during a period when photography itself was still evolving. Down House serves as an iconic setting for this portrait; its grandeur and historical significance are palpable even through the black-and-white medium. This residence played a pivotal role in Charles Darwin's scientific journey and intellectual pursuits. As we observe William Erasmus standing before it, we cannot help but wonder about his own contributions to science or perhaps other domains that may have shaped his legacy. Preserved by Historic England Photo Library, this print offers us more than just visual appeal; it invites contemplation about family ties and their impact on personal aspirations. It reminds us that behind every great mind lies a network of support and influence – here represented by William Erasmus' connection to Charles Darwin. Through this photograph, we are transported back in time to witness not only an individual but also an era marked by groundbreaking discoveries and intellectual curiosity.
