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
Step into the enchanting world of Booths Dry Gin at the notorious Gargoyle Club on Meard Street, London, as depicted in this advertisement from 1934. The image showcases George, the charismatic barman, expertly mixing two exquisite cocktails with an air of sophistication and flair. The Gargoyle Club, founded in 1925, was once the epitome of decadent glamour, attracting an array of artists and high society figures. By the 1950s, however, it had transformed into a seedy drinking den, with the likes of Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud among its regular patrons. The 1930s, a time of social and cultural change, were marked by a growing appreciation for the art of mixology. Booths Dry Gin, with its crisp and refreshing taste, became a staple in London's vibrant nightlife scene. This advertisement, with its evocative imagery and enticing promise of a delightful evening, would have surely enticed many to visit the Gargoyle Club and indulge in a Booths Dry Gin cocktail or two. As you gaze upon this photograph, you can almost hear the soft hum of conversation, the clinking of glasses, and the faint strains of jazz music wafting through the air. Transport yourself back in time and immerse yourself in the rich history of London's most intriguing nightspots.
