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 captures the essence of childhood joy and carefree summer days. The image showcases the enchanting Fairy Dell Paddling Pool, nestled along Tower Esplanade in Skegness, Lincolnshire. As sunlight dances on the water's surface, a mesmerizing fountain creates an ethereal atmosphere that beckons both young and old to indulge in its refreshing embrace. The paddling pool stands as a testament to timeless innocence and simple pleasures. Children can be seen splashing about with unbridled enthusiasm, their laughter echoing through the air like music notes. Each splash sends ripples across the pool, creating a symphony of movement that mirrors their boundless energy. Historic England's Alun Bull has masterfully captured this moment in time, freezing it forever within this exquisite photograph.

In preserving this slice of history through photography, Alun Bull invites us all to reconnect with our inner child; reminding us that sometimes all it takes is a simple paddling pool to bring immense happiness into our lives once more.
