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 titled "Forge Deck Night August 9th Preparing Iron Plating" by Robert Charles Dudley showcases the great technological achievements of the 19th century. The image, created using watercolor, graphite, and gouache on a sheet measuring 10 3/8 x 17 7/8 inches (26.3 x 45 cm), transports us back to a pivotal moment in history. In this artwork, we witness the meticulous preparations taking place on deck as workers lay down iron plating for a significant project. This scene represents the laying of a telegraphic cable beneath the Atlantic Ocean—a groundbreaking feat that allowed messages to be transmitted at an unprecedented speed between North America and Europe. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing both the grandeur of the steamer and the intricate work being carried out by these skilled individuals. Their dedication and expertise are essential in ensuring that this monumental task is executed flawlessly. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing depiction, we can't help but marvel at how far technology has come since those early days. What once took ten to twelve days for messages to travel across continents now takes mere minutes thanks to advancements like these. The Liszt Collection presents us with yet another remarkable piece from our past—reminding us of humanity's relentless pursuit of progress and its ability to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges.
