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
Step into the world of 1909 theatrical drama with this promotional postcard of Roy Horniman's production of "Idols." This image, taken from the Hutchison Company's tour to the Grand Theatre in Southampton, showcases a pivotal moment from Act III of the melodrama. In the courtroom, Irene Merriman (centre) bravely stands to testify on behalf of the accused, unbeknownst to all, including the judge (right), that he was actually with a different woman whom he had secretly married. The barristers (left) eagerly await Irene's words, as the tension in the courtroom reaches a fever pitch. This photograph offers a glimpse into the popular entertainment of the early 1900s, a time when melodramas and pantomimes held the stage captive with their dramatic twists and turns. Experience the thrill of the theatre as it comes alive through this stunning image from the past.
