17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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
Step aboard the opulent Cote D'Azur Express, a marvel of Edwardian rail travel, as depicted in this stunning photograph from 1904. The Calais-Mediterranean Express, a service that ran three times a week in connection with the 11am train from Victoria, offered passengers an unparalleled journey of luxury and refinement. As you enter the dining car, your senses are immediately captivated by the rich, warm hues and sumptuous textures that envelop you. The interior, adorned with plush velvet upholstery, gleaming mahogany panels, and intricate metalwork, exudes an air of elegance and sophistication. The soft glow of the gaslights casts a warm, inviting light over the scene, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and relaxation. The table is set with fine china, crystal glassware, and gleaming silverware, ready to serve a delectable meal prepared by the skilled onboard chefs. The gentle hum of conversation and clinking of cutlery fills the air, punctuated by the rhythmic ticking of the train's wheels against the tracks. The Cote D'Azur Express was a testament to the golden age of rail travel, offering a luxurious escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. As the train made its way through the picturesque landscapes of France, towards the sun-soaked shores of the Mediterranean, passengers could sit back, relax, and indulge in the pleasures of the journey itself. This photograph offers a glimpse into a bygone era of opulence and indulgence, a time when travel was an art form in and of itself.
