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 timeless beauty of Belchers Lift Bridge, a true gem among the important series of Oxford canal lift-bridges. Standing proudly as a testament to England's rich industrial heritage, this particular type of bridge has become increasingly rare in modern times. With its intricate wooden and brick structure harmoniously blending into the tranquil rural landscape, it serves as both a functional transport link and an enchanting piece of architectural history. Nestled amidst the picturesque countryside of Oxfordshire, this remarkable bridge effortlessly captures the essence of its surroundings. Towering trees gracefully frame the scene, their branches reaching towards the sky with an air of tranquility. The gentle flow of waterway beneath adds another layer to this idyllic setting, reflecting nature's serene beauty. Listed by Historic England for its historical significance, Belchers Lift Bridge stands as a symbol not only of transportation but also cultural preservation. Its weathered wood and sturdy brickwork tell tales from days gone by when canals were bustling arteries connecting communities across England. Through Alistair F. Nisbet's lens, we are transported back in time to appreciate this extraordinary feat of engineering against nature's backdrop. This print is more than just an image; it is a visual ode to our past and a reminder that even in today's fast-paced world, there are still places where time seems to stand still – where history whispers through every beam and brick.
