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 transports us back in time to the bustling East India Docks of London in July 1937. The aerial view captured by Aeropictorial showcases a mesmerizing scene, with the docks and surrounding warehouses teeming with activity. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are immediately drawn into a world where maritime commerce thrived. The image reveals an intricate network of freighters loading and unloading their precious cargo, painting a vivid picture of the vibrant trade that once animated these docks. The sheer scale of operations is awe-inspiring, as workers scurry about like ants amidst towering ships and stacks of crates. A sense of industry permeates every inch of this photograph; it is evident that this was a place where dreams were realized through hard work and determination. The architectural beauty of the warehouses adds to the charm, showcasing both functionality and elegance in their design. As we contemplate this image from Historic England's Aerofilms Collection, we cannot help but marvel at how far our world has come since those days. Yet, there is also a tinge of nostalgia for an era when such scenes were commonplace along London's waterfront. This print serves as a poignant reminder that history lives on through images like these – frozen moments capturing not just physical structures but also the spirit and energy that once defined them.
