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 titled "1960s sophistication" takes us back in time to the bustling Matador Public House, located in The Bullring, Birmingham. Captured in December 1963 by John Laing Collection and preserved by the Historic England Archive, this image showcases the interior of the pub with an air of elegance and refinement. The scene is alive with activity as customers are seen comfortably seated at tables or casually standing at the bar. The ambiance exudes a sense of camaraderie and conviviality that was characteristic of British pubs during this era. It's fascinating to observe how people dressed up for their night out, donning stylish suits and elegant dresses - a true reflection of 1960s fashion. The decor is equally impressive, featuring intricate woodwork, ornate lighting fixtures, and polished brass accents that add a touch of sophistication to the space. Every detail has been meticulously captured by John Laing's lens, allowing us to appreciate not only the architectural beauty but also the social dynamics within these iconic establishments.
