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 striking portrait captures Montagu William Lowry Corry, 1st Baron Rowton (1838-1903), an influential statesman and philanthropist who served as Disraeli's private secretary. The photograph, taken by Vanity Fair in 1877, showcases Corry's distinguished profile, donning a checked suit and top hat that were fashionable attire for gentlemen of the time. Born into a wealthy family, Corry's political career began in earnest when he was appointed as Disraeli's private secretary in 1868. He served in this role until Disraeli's resignation in 1880. During this period, Corry played a pivotal role in shaping Disraeli's policies and was instrumental in the Conservative Party's electoral victories. After Disraeli's retirement from politics, Corry continued to make significant contributions to society through his philanthropic endeavors. He was a founding member of the Charity Organisation Society, which aimed to provide long-term solutions to poverty rather than just short-term relief. He also established the Rowton Houses, which provided affordable housing for the working class. Corry's legacy extends beyond politics and philanthropy. He was a prolific writer and published several books, including "The Life of Benjamin Disraeli, Earl of Beaconsfield," which remains a valuable historical account of Disraeli's life and political career. This photograph of Montagu William Lowry Corry, taken over a century ago, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable statesman and philanthropist who left an indelible mark on British history.
