FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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.

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
Goteborg Street Scene (Street scene at Stigbergsliden), 1879, Gothenburg, Sweden This evocative photograph captures the bustling energy of Goteborg's Stigbergsliden district in 1879. The street scene is a vibrant tableau of daily life in Gothenburg, Sweden's second-largest city, during the late 19th century. The image is dominated by the imposing presence of the Stigbergsliden Church, its tall spire reaching towards the sky. The church, built in the late 18th century, was a symbol of the city's growing prosperity and religious fervor. Surrounding the church, the narrow cobblestone streets are filled with a diverse population, including merchants, laborers, and their families. The photograph reveals the rich textures of Gothenburg's urban fabric. Horse-drawn carts and wagons jostle for space alongside pedestrians, while clotheslines crisscross the alleys, displaying the colorful laundry of the residents. The buildings, a mix of wood and stone, reflect the city's architectural diversity. The people in the photograph are engaged in various activities, from selling wares in the market to mending shoes on the sidewalk. Their expressions and body language convey a sense of purpose and resilience, reflecting the challenges and opportunities of urban life in late 19th-century Sweden. This photograph is a valuable historical document, offering insights into the social, economic, and architectural history of Gothenburg during a pivotal period in its development. It invites us to reflect on the city's past and to appreciate the rich cultural heritage that continues to shape its identity today.
