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 print showcases the enchanting Grotto at Old Wardour Castle, located in the picturesque county of Wiltshire. Steeped in history and nestled amidst lush greenery, this architectural gem was built around 1792 by the skilled hands of Josiah Lane from Tisbury. The Grotto's intricate design is a testament to Lane's craftsmanship, as it exudes an air of mystique and allure. Its walls are adorned with delicate shells and rocks meticulously arranged to create a mesmerizing mosaic-like pattern. As you gaze upon this photograph, you can almost hear the gentle trickle of water echoing through its chambers, adding to its ethereal ambiance. Old Wardour Castle itself stands proudly in the background, providing a stunning backdrop for this unique structure. The castle's weathered stone walls hint at centuries-old tales that have unfolded within its confines. Jonathan Bailey has masterfully captured the essence of this historical treasure through his lens. His keen eye for detail allows us to appreciate every intricacy and texture present in both the grotto and castle alike. This print serves as a window into Wiltshire's rich heritage, transporting viewers back in time to an era where such architectural wonders were crafted with passion and precision. It invites us to explore our own imaginations while marveling at the beauty that lies within these ancient structures.
