31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame

FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 photograph captures a scene of elegance and grandeur in the heart of Paris. Taken by the renowned English photographer William Henry Fox Talbot in May 1843, this print titled "Carriages Paris Residence" showcases his mastery of the salted paper print technique. In this image, we are transported back to a time when horse-drawn carriages were the epitome of luxury transportation. Parked outside an exquisite Parisian residence, these carriages exude sophistication and opulence. The intricate details on each carriage showcase the craftsmanship that went into their creation, from the ornate wheels to the beautifully carved doors. The composition is expertly framed, drawing our attention to not only the carriages but also to the stunning architecture of the residence behind them. The play between light and shadow adds depth and dimension to this already mesmerizing scene. Talbot's use of a paper negative further enhances the vintage charm of this print. It lends a softness to the image while retaining remarkable clarity in its details. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but imagine ourselves strolling through those cobblestone streets or perhaps even stepping inside one of those magnificent carriages for a ride through old-world Paris. This photograph truly encapsulates an era long gone but forever preserved through Talbot's lens.
