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 Engine No. 600 of the Virginian Railway Company, proudly standing in Princeton, West Virginia, circa 1910. The image presents a glimpse into the rich history of American railroading during the 1910s. The men in overalls, with their hands on the engine, exude a sense of pride and accomplishment, as they maintain and prepare this magnificent locomotive for its next journey. Engine No. 600, a testament to engineering prowess, is surrounded by the lush greenery of the West Virginia landscape, with trees reaching out towards the rail track, creating a stunning contrast between man-made infrastructure and the natural world. The intricate details of the engine's design, from its large smokestack to the intricate machinery, are on full display, showcasing the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the era. The Virginian Railway Company, established in 1907, was a vital part of the transportation network in the eastern United States, connecting the coal fields of southern West Virginia with the ports of Hampton Roads, Virginia. This photograph offers a unique perspective into the daily operations of the railway and the lives of the men who worked on it. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to appreciate the role that railroads played in shaping the American landscape and connecting communities across the country.
