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 evocative photograph captures the essence of Egypt Mill in Nailsworth, Gloucestershire, a fine example of a South West Textile Mill that once played a significant role in the region's industrial history. Taken by James O. Davies for Historic England, the image showcases the mill's impressive architecture and the picturesque setting that has made it a beloved local landmark. The mill, with its red-brick facade and tall, arched windows, stands proudly against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery. Water cascades down from the mill race, feeding the mill's wheels and adding to the sense of industry and productivity. The mill pond, reflecting the clear blue sky, adds a serene contrast to the bustling activity of the mill. The Egypt Mill, built in the late 18th century, was once a hub of textile production in the Stroud Valleys. The area was renowned for its wool and cloth industries, and the mill's location on the River Frome made it an ideal site for water-powered textile production. The mill produced a range of textiles, including woolen cloth, linen, and cotton, and employed a large workforce. Despite the passage of time, the mill has remained an integral part of Nailsworth's heritage. Today, it serves as a reminder of the region's rich industrial past and the important role that textile production played in shaping the local economy and community. The mill has been sympathetically restored and converted into residential apartments, ensuring that its history and character are preserved for future generations to enjoy.
