Coastal Folly Ruin Scen Ic Shadow Water Roofless


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
Basking in the ethereal glow of twilight, The Folly at Mount Edgcumbe Park stands proudly on a hilltop, overlooking the tranquil expanse of Plymouth Sound. This hauntingly beautiful ruin, a folly in its truest sense, was constructed to evoke the grandeur of ancient ruins and to provide a picturesque backdrop to the surrounding landscape. The once grand edifice, now roofless and open to the elements, casts long, dramatic shadows across the undulating terrain. The intricate stonework, weathered by time and the elements, tells a tale of history and the passage of time. The folly's crumbling walls, adorned with intricate carvings and ornate details, bear witness to the craftsmanship of a bygone era. As the sun sets, the folly is bathed in a golden light, the water of the sound reflecting the scene in a mirror-like surface. The serene waters, dotted with the masts of sailboats, add to the scenic beauty of the image. The folly, with its shadowy silhouette, stands in stark contrast to the vibrant colors of the sunset, creating a breathtakingly beautiful tableau. The Folly at Mount Edgcumbe Park, a testament to the past, continues to captivate visitors with its timeless charm and the tranquility it offers. This photograph by Anne Newell ARPS, taken from Historic England's collection, immortalizes the essence of this enchanting ruin, inviting us to imagine the stories it holds within its walls and the secrets it has kept hidden for centuries.
