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 showcases the interior of a 3-berth cabin aboard the majestic RMS Olympic, sister ship to the renowned Titanic and Britannic. Taken by Bedford Lemere and Company, commissioned by the White Star Line (Oceanic Steam Navigation Company), this photograph offers a glimpse into the luxurious accommodations available on board this iconic vessel. The image captures Cabin D23, with its elegant furnishings and meticulous attention to detail. The viewer is drawn towards the dressing table, adorned with delicate trinkets and a mirror reflecting timeless elegance. The warm lighting enhances the inviting atmosphere of this private sanctuary at sea. Steeped in history, this photograph transports us back to Southampton docks in 1920-21 when passengers eagerly embarked on their transatlantic journeys. It serves as a reminder of an era defined by opulence and grandeur in maritime travel. As we admire this snapshot from yesteryears, it's impossible not to ponder upon the stories that unfolded within these walls – tales of adventure, romance, or perhaps quiet contemplation amidst vast oceans. This image encapsulates both nostalgia for a bygone era and admiration for human ingenuity in creating such remarkable floating palaces. Preserved within Historic England Archive's collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only architectural beauty but also cultural significance.
