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.

1. Title: A Taste of India in 1940s London: G. Kempinski Tavern and Veeraswamy Restaurant. This evocative photograph captures the exterior of two iconic Indian restaurants, the G. Kempinski Tavern and Veeraswamy Restaurant, located off Regent Street in London during the 1940s. The image, taken in 1947, showcases the unique architectural blend of Indian and European influences that defined these establishments. The G. Kempinski Tavern, with its distinctive corniche design and elegant facade, exudes an air of sophistication and exclusivity. The tavern, known for its continental cuisine, was a popular destination for the city's elite and celebrities, offering a refined dining experience. Adjacent to the Kempinski Tavern lies Veeraswamy Restaurant, a pioneering Indian eatery that opened its doors in 1926. Veeraswamy was the first Indian restaurant in Europe to gain widespread acclaim and was renowned for its authentic Indian dishes, prepared by skilled chefs hailing from India. The photograph transports us back to a time when Regent Street was a vibrant hub of cultural diversity, where the aromas of exotic spices and rich flavors wafted through the air, enticing passersby to explore the culinary delights within. The image encapsulates the rich history and enduring legacy of these two iconic restaurants, which continue to be cherished institutions in London's culinary scene. This photograph is a testament to the multicultural fabric of London during the 1940s and serves as a reminder of the city's long-standing love affair with Indian cuisine. The image, taken from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a valuable historical record of two iconic establishments that have shaped the culinary landscape of London and continue to inspire generations of food lovers.
