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
This print from the Liszt Collection titled "Railroad Bridge Kaw River" takes us back to 1867, capturing a moment frozen in time. The image showcases the remarkable work of Alexander Gardner, an American photographer born in Scotland in 1821. The photograph features a majestic railroad bridge spanning across the mighty Kaw River. Its intricate design and sturdy construction are testaments to human ingenuity and engineering prowess during that era. The composition is strikingly beautiful, with the bridge's arches reflecting perfectly on the calm waters below. Gardner's use of albumen silver print brings out exquisite details and tones, enhancing our appreciation for this historical masterpiece. Each element within the frame tells a story - from the meticulously crafted ironwork to the tranquil river flowing beneath it. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but imagine what life was like during those times: steam locomotives chugging along these tracks, carrying goods and people across vast distances; workers laboring tirelessly to construct such monumental structures; and communities flourishing as transportation networks expanded. This photograph not only captures a specific place at a particular point in history but also serves as a reminder of humanity's relentless pursuit of progress. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come while appreciating our roots firmly planted in innovation and ambition.
