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 captures the essence of a bygone era, as a group of determined old boys line up for the start of a cycling competition in Landskrona, Sweden during the early 1910s. Dressed in their period attire, each man exudes a sense of focus and determination, their eyes fixed on the finish line ahead. The simple joy of competition is evident in their expressions, as they prepare to mount their bicycles and embark on a challenging race through the picturesque Swedish countryside. The bicycles themselves are a fascinating glimpse into the past, with their large, high-tension wheels and intricately designed frames. The riders' handlebars are adorned with leather grips, and their clothing is practical yet stylish, reflecting the fashion of the time. The scene is one of camaraderie and friendly rivalry, as the men gather to test their strength, skill, and endurance against one another. This photograph offers a unique window into the past, providing a glimpse into the world of competitive cycling during the early 1900s. It is a reminder of the simple pleasures and joys that can be found in the pursuit of athletic achievement, and the enduring appeal of the bicycle as a mode of transportation and a symbol of freedom and adventure. The image is a testament to the human spirit, and the enduring popularity of cycling as a sport and a pastime, even as the world around us continues to change at a rapid pace.
