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 pencil drawing, entitled 'A Flower Concert for Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital,' dates back to the 1890s and was created by the renowned artist Phil May. The sketch, which showcases a lively and colorful flower concert, was arranged to publicize an event aimed at raising funds for the esteemed Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital. In the heartwarming scene, we see Miss Ada Payne, the arranger of the concert, tenderly hugging a sick child as she holds a bouquet of flowers. Phil May's deft use of pencil captures the emotion and compassion that was at the core of this charitable endeavor. The child, with a look of wonder and delight, returns the artist's hug, symbolizing the healing power of love and community. The Flower Concert was an innovative way to bring people together to raise awareness and funds for the hospital, which provided essential care and treatment for children suffering from various illnesses. The event, which was likely held in the late 1800s, was a testament to the generosity and kindness of the community, who came together to make a difference in the lives of sick children. This historical drawing serves as a poignant reminder of the power of art and community in raising awareness and funds for important causes. It is an invaluable piece of history that sheds light on the early days of charitable events and the compassionate spirit of those who came before us. The legacy of the Flower Concert lives on, inspiring us to continue supporting the vital work of Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital and other organizations dedicated to improving the lives of children in need.
