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 photograph, taken circa 1966, showcases the iconic Big Ben (now officially known as the Elizabeth Tower) and the Houses of Parliament in Westminster, London. The image is framed by the intricate gothic architecture of the buildings, with their dark, imposing silhouettes casting an air of grandeur and history. The clock face of Big Ben, with its Roman numerals and ornate detailing, stands proudly at the center, symbolizing the passage of time and the enduring significance of this British landmark. In the foreground, one of the majestic horses from the Boadicea statue adds a sense of dynamism and movement to the scene. The equestrian statue of Boudicca, a powerful symbol of British resistance, stands nearby, further emphasizing the rich historical context of this location. The horses' glossy coats and alert expressions add a touch of life and energy to the otherwise static image. This photograph, from The Japics Historic Photography Collection/Mary Evans, transports us back to the 1960s, a time of cultural and social change in Britain. The image captures the essence of this iconic London landmark, making it a must-have for any collection of historic photographs or those with an appreciation for the history and beauty of the British capital.
