31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 evocative photograph, taken by John Gay in 1964, captures the quiet introspection of a Boxer dog named A072878 as he gazes out of an upper floor window of a charming brick-built house in Highbury Terrace, Islington, London. The intricate details of the terraced house's facade are on full display, with its tall, narrow windows, ornate brickwork, and ivy-covered walls creating a sense of history and character. The dog's alert and focused expression adds a touch of intrigue to the scene, as if he is deep in thought or waiting for something. The soft, muted tones of the photograph add to the sense of tranquility and introspection, transporting us back in time to a simpler era. The photograph is a beautiful reminder of the enduring bond between humans and their animals, and the simple pleasures of observing the world from the comfort of one's home." "John Gay, a renowned photographer, captured this moment in time with his camera, preserving it for future generations to appreciate. The photograph is not only a testament to the beauty of the dog and the house, but also to the power of photography to evoke emotions and transport us to another place and time." "Highbury Terrace, located in the trendy and vibrant Islington neighborhood of London, is known for its picturesque streets and historic architecture. This photograph offers a unique perspective of the area, showcasing both the beauty of the built environment and the companionship of a beloved pet." "This photograph is a treasure trove of visual storytelling, inviting us to imagine the story behind the scene and the lives of the people and the dog who once called this house their home. It is a reminder of the importance of cherishing the moments of quiet reflection and introspection in our busy lives, and the joy of observing the world through the eyes of our beloved animals.
