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
This photograph, taken by Henry Taunt between 1860 and 1887, showcases the picturesque Richmond Bridge in Richmond upon Thames, London. A Victorian masterpiece, the bridge was constructed between 1774-7 by James Paine and Kenton Couse, connecting the north and south banks of the River Thames. The bridge's elegant design, with its three arches and ornate railings, is a testament to the architectural prowess of the time. The serene image of the bridge, framed by the lush greenery of the surrounding landscape, captures the tranquility of the river and the beauty of the natural environment. The gentle flow of the water, reflecting the bridge's graceful arches, adds to the sense of calm and peace. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history of this charming area of London. The absence of modern structures and the horse-drawn carriages on the bridge transport us back in time, allowing us to imagine the scene as it would have looked during the Victorian era. Henry Taunt's skillful composition and use of light and shadow create a timeless image that continues to captivate viewers, making it a cherished piece of history and a reminder of the enduring beauty of Richmond Bridge.
