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 series of twelve consecutive images showcases the grace and power of a Greyhound in full flight. Taken around 1881, these photographs offer a rare glimpse into the past, providing an intriguing window into the world of these magnificent animals before the advent of modern photography. The Greyhound, known for its slender build and incredible speed, is a breed that has captivated humans for thousands of years. In these images, we see the dog in its natural element, fully engaged in the pursuit of its prey. With each step, its powerful legs propel it forward, muscles taut and coat glistening with sweat. Its eyes are focused intently on the horizon, the very picture of determination and focus. The photographs were likely taken using a technique known as 'stop-motion' or 'sequential photography,' which was still a relatively new innovation at the time. The ability to capture multiple images in quick succession allowed the photographer to freeze the Greyhound's movements and reveal the beauty and fluidity of its gait. These images offer a unique perspective on the Greyhound's physical capabilities and the art of photography in the late 19th century. They also serve as a reminder of the enduring appeal of these animals, which continue to be cherished for their speed, agility, and beauty to this day.
