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
1. Title: A Home for the Working Man: Guinness Lodging Houses, Lever Street, London 2.. This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the Guinness Lodging Houses on Lever Street in London, a remarkable architectural and social landmark erected in 1890. Established by the Guinness Trust, this building was designed to provide affordable housing for working men, offering a respite from the harsh realities of poverty and overcrowding that were prevalent during the late Victorian era. The Guinness Trust, an innovative social welfare initiative, was founded by the influential Irish brewing family, the Guinnesses, who sought to address the dire living conditions faced by the working class in London. The Trust's mission was to construct and manage affordable homes for those in need, ensuring they had a safe and secure place to live. The Guinness Lodging Houses on Lever Street were a testament to the Trust's commitment to social responsibility. The building's design was both functional and aesthetically pleasing, with red brick facades, large windows, and well-planned communal spaces. The interiors were equally thoughtfully designed, featuring small but efficient living quarters, shared bathrooms, and communal kitchens. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the daily lives of the men who called these lodgings their home. The image shows a bustling scene, with men of various ages and backgrounds going about their daily routines, creating a sense of community and camaraderie. The Guinness Lodging Houses on Lever Street stand as a testament to the power of philanthropy and the importance of affordable housing in creating a more equitable society. Although the building no longer exists, its legacy continues to inspire and inform contemporary efforts to address housing affordability and social welfare.
