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 historical print captures a pivotal moment in London's history - the demonstration against the toll on Chelsea Bridge in 1857. The image depicts a crowded scene with people from all walks of life coming together to protest against the charging of a fee to cross the newly constructed bridge.
The atmosphere is charged with political fervor as individuals wave flags and hold up placards demanding an end to the toll. It is evident that this issue struck a chord with the public, as evidenced by the large turnout at this demonstration.
The Victorian era was marked by significant social and political change, and this image serves as a reminder of the power of collective action in shaping policy decisions. The determination and unity displayed by those gathered on Chelsea Bridge speak volumes about their commitment to fighting for what they believe is right.
As we look back on this moment in history, it serves as a powerful reminder of how ordinary people can come together to challenge authority and demand change. This print is not just a snapshot from the past; it is a testament to the enduring spirit of activism and resistance that continues to shape our world today.
