Cloud Dark Industrial Ruin Rural Tree
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 by James O. Davies transports us to the hauntingly beautiful landscape of Dartmoor, Devon. In this image, we are confronted with the remnants of Powder Mills at Postbridge, standing as a testament to an industrial past against an overcast sky. The scene exudes a sense of darkness and mystery, as if whispering tales from another era. The rural setting adds to its enigmatic charm, surrounded by nature's embrace. A solitary tree stands tall nearby, seemingly guarding the ruins and bearing witness to their slow decay. The ruined building and chimney evoke a sense of nostalgia for a time when these structures were once bustling with activity. They serve as reminders of Dartmoor's industrial history and the significance it held in shaping the region's identity. As clouds loom overhead, they add an atmospheric touch to the composition, enhancing its moody ambiance. The juxtaposition between man-made ruins and natural elements creates a striking visual contrast that draws us deeper into this evocative scene. James O. Davies' skillful capture allows us to reflect on our connection with history and how landscapes can hold echoes of forgotten stories. This print invites viewers to contemplate the passage of time while appreciating both beauty and decay in equal measure – reminding us that even in ruinous remains lies a certain kind of allure that captivates our imagination.
