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 engraving captures the thrilling finish of the 1869 Race for Doggett's Coat and Badge, an annual competition held on the River Thames between the Old Swan, London Bridge, and the White Swan, Chelsea. Established in the 17th century, this historic event is named after the Doggett family, who owned the Doggett's Coat and Badge public house in London. The race is open to watermen, who row in traditional Thames skiffs, and is held in August every year. In this image, George Wright, the victor of the 1869 race, is shown triumphantly crossing the finish line, his boat slicing through the water as the cheering crowds on the banks of the Thames look on. The Race for Doggett's Coat and Badge is an important part of the rich maritime history of London and continues to be a cherished tradition to this day."
