Landscape Rural Shadow Silhouette
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.

1. Title: Brill Windmill - A 17th Century Gem Amidst the Tranquil Aylesbury Vale Landscape, Buckinghamshire 2.. Nestled in the heart of the picturesque village of Brill, Buckinghamshire, stands the historic Brill Windmill. Captured in this evocative photograph taken by John Gay in 1963, the windmill presents a captivating silhouette against the backdrop of the idyllic rural landscape. The windmill, with its late 17th-century timber frame and weatherboard cladding, is a testament to the rich history and heritage of the region. Its circular 20th-century brick base and conical slate roof add a charming contrast to the traditional design, reflecting the evolution of the structure over the centuries. As the sun sets, long shadows stretch across the landscape, casting an ethereal glow over the farmstead below. The rolling hills of the Aylesbury Vale, dotted with quaint farmhouses and verdant fields, unfurl before the windmill, offering a serene and pastoral scene. John Gay's photograph masterfully encapsulates the essence of rural England, inviting us to take a moment to appreciate the beauty and tranquility of the countryside. The Brill Windmill, with its proud and enduring presence, serves as a reminder of the area's rich history and the simple pleasures of rural life. This photograph is not only a visual delight but also a valuable historical record, preserving the essence of a bygone era for future generations to enjoy and cherish. The Brill Windmill remains a cherished landmark, standing proudly amidst the ever-changing landscape of Buckinghamshire.
