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, taken in 1938, showcases the picturesque view of Eel Pie Island from Twickenham, London. Nestled along the serene Tideway of the River Thames, the island's tranquil beauty is on full display. The island, known for its rich history and artistic community, was once a popular destination for Londoners seeking an escape from the city's hustle and bustle. In the foreground, a group of gentlemen can be seen engaged in a lively game of badminton, their laughter carried across the water. Boats of various sizes and shapes dot the river, adding to the vibrant scene. The island's quaint cottages and thatched roofs can be seen in the background, their charming silhouettes framed by the towering trees that line the riverbank. The island's name, Eel Pie, is a nod to its past as a popular spot for fishing, particularly for eels. The area was once known for its bustling markets and eel pies, which were a local delicacy. Today, the island is a popular destination for artists, musicians, and those seeking a peaceful retreat. This photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, a time when life moved at a slower pace and the simple pleasures of nature and community were cherished. The view of Eel Pie Island on the Tideway at Twickenham, as depicted in this photograph, is a testament to the enduring allure of the River Thames and the beauty of the English countryside.
