Cliffs Funicular Hastings Haul Life Boat Shingle Shire Watch 1937
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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in history at Hastings, England in 1937, showcasing the remarkable partnership between man and horse. The image shows two young boys observing with awe as powerful shire horses haul a lifeboat from the beach to the water. These majestic creatures were an integral part of maritime rescue operations, playing a crucial role in saving lives along the treacherous coastline.
The scene is steeped in nostalgia and historical significance, offering a glimpse into a bygone era when traditional methods were relied upon for lifesaving missions. The rugged cliffs and shingle beach provide a dramatic backdrop to this extraordinary display of teamwork and bravery.
The Lifeboat Horses at Hastings are not just working animals but symbols of resilience and determination in the face of adversity. Their strength and loyalty shine through as they pull the heavy lifeboat towards its mission on the water.
As we gaze upon this poignant snapshot from the past, we are reminded of the unwavering spirit of those who risked their lives to save others at sea. It serves as a tribute to all those who have dedicated themselves to serving their communities with courage and selflessness. This image is not just a photograph; it is a testament to human ingenuity and compassion that transcends time.
