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
Boating WSA01_01_07979 captures the essence of carefree leisure in a bygone era. This enchanting photo print, taken between 1925 and 1930 by Walter Scott, transports us to West End Pier in Morecambe, Lancashire. The scene unfolds with a picturesque view of the pier as seen from across the Children's Boating Pool. The image exudes nostalgia and invites us to step back in time, immersing ourselves in an idyllic seaside setting. As we gaze upon this snapshot of history, we are transported to an era where boating was not just a recreational activity but a way of life. The tranquil waters beckon visitors to embark on their own nautical adventures while basking in the warm embrace of sun-kissed sands. In this composition, people can be seen enjoying moments of respite amidst their bustling lives. Families gather along the shorelines, children frolic gleefully around the boat pool, and couples stroll hand-in-hand along the pier's wooden planks. It is a testament to simpler times when joy could be found through simple pleasures like feeling sand between our toes or listening to waves gently crashing against weathered pilings. Walter Scott skillfully captures both the beauty and serenity that define coastal living - where land meets sea and dreams take flight on billowing sails. This evocative photograph serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst changing tides, some things remain constant: our innate desire
