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 print showcases the evolution of the iconic Eddystone Lighthouses throughout history. From left to right, we see the first lighthouse built in 1699 by Henry Winstanley, a testament to early maritime navigation. Next is the second lighthouse constructed in 1708 by John Rudyerd, demonstrating advancements in engineering and design.
The third lighthouse, built in 1759 by John Smeaton, represents a significant milestone in lighthouse construction with its innovative use of hydraulic lime. Finally, we have the fourth and most recent addition to the series, designed by Sir James Douglass in 1882. Each structure tells a unique story of technological progress and human ingenuity.
As we gaze upon this engraving of the four Eddystone Lighthouses, we are reminded of their enduring presence on the rugged coastline and their vital role in guiding ships safely through treacherous waters. The rich history encapsulated within these structures serves as a reminder of our collective maritime heritage and the importance of preserving these architectural marvels for future generations to appreciate.
