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
Bringing Home Mistletoe and Holly: A Traditional 19th Century Holiday Scene by Charles Robinson (1906) In this charming turn-of-the-century photograph, we witness a delightful winter scene as children bring home bundles of mistletoe and holly, symbolizing the festive spirit of the upcoming Christmas season. Dressed in warm gloves and bundled up against the cold, the children eagerly carry their precious finds, their faces reflecting the excitement and anticipation of the holiday celebrations to come. The image, captured by English photographer Charles Robinson in 1906, offers a glimpse into the customs and traditions of the past. Mistletoe and holly were popular decorative elements during the Victorian era, and bringing them home to adorn one's dwelling was a cherished practice. The green foliage of the holly and the white berries of the mistletoe not only added beauty to the home but also represented the enduring promise of new life amidst the winter chill. The border of the photograph frame, adorned with intricate floral patterns, further enhances the seasonal theme. The image, with its crisp details and timeless appeal, invites us to pause and reflect on the simple joys and traditions that have endured through the generations. This photograph, a testament to the enduring charm of the past, serves as a reminder of the importance of cherishing the holiday season and the traditions that make it so special. As we admire the image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to savor the magic and wonder of a bygone era.
