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 "Heights Foilhummerum Bay Valentia William Corey Heading Seawards" captures a momentous event in history. Created by the talented artist Robert Charles Dudley, this 19th-century masterpiece showcases one of the great technological achievements of its time. The artwork depicts a scene from July 7th, 1866, where we see a steamer laying the Atlantic Telegraph Cable beneath the vast expanse of the ocean. This cable allowed messages to be transmitted at an unprecedented speed back and forth between North America and Europe, revolutionizing communication. Dudley's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke of watercolor, graphite, and gouache on this sheet measuring 10 3/8 by 15 inches (26.3 by 39.1 cm). The composition beautifully captures the serene beauty of Foilhummerum Bay as well as the immense scale of this groundbreaking endeavor. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how these brave individuals embarked on such a daring mission. It took ten to twelve days for them to lay each section of cable across treacherous waters while battling unpredictable weather conditions. This artwork serves as a testament not only to Dudley's artistic talent but also to human ingenuity and perseverance. It reminds us that through determination and innovation, seemingly insurmountable challenges can be overcome. Let this extraordinary piece transport you back in time and inspire you with its depiction of one of humanity
