Cast Iron Green Health Listed Victorian Water Pump Welfare
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 by Jane Greatorex LRPS transports us back in time to the quaint village of Longstanton, Cambridgeshire. The focal point of this image is a beautifully preserved Victorian Village Pump, standing tall and proud amidst its surroundings. Made entirely of cast iron, this historic water pump has withstood the test of time and remains an extraordinary testament to the craftsmanship of yesteryears. Listed as a significant heritage site (IoE 50819), this village pump holds immense historical value for the local community. It served as a vital source of welfare during an era when access to clean water was crucial for public health. Its vibrant green hue adds a touch of charm against the backdrop of rustic buildings and cobblestone streets. Jane Greatorex's expertly captured photograph not only showcases the architectural beauty but also evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the rhythmic creaking sound as villagers operated the handle, drawing refreshing water from deep within. With every detail meticulously preserved through Jane's lens, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an important reminder that our past shapes our present. It invites us to appreciate how far we have come in terms of advancements in public health while cherishing these remnants from bygone eras that continue to enrich our cultural landscape today.
