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 stunning photograph captures the majestic Locomotive No. 4023, King George, as it proudly stands at a railway station during its prime years of service. The 4-6-0 engine, a product of the Great Western Railway (GWR) in the United Kingdom, is a testament to the engineering marvels of the steam locomotive era. The King George class locomotives were designed by George Churchward, the Chief Mechanical Engineer of the GWR, and were built between 1902 and 1906. They were named after King George V, who reigned from 1910 to 1936. This particular engine, No. 4023, was one of the last of the class to be built and was withdrawn from service in 1962. The 4-6-0 wheel arrangement, also known as the Ten Wheeler, was a common design for express passenger locomotives during the early 20th century. The engine's powerful and efficient design allowed it to pull heavy trains at impressive speeds. The King George locomotives were known for their distinctive appearance, with their large boilers, tall chimneys, and elegant lines. This photograph offers a glimpse into the golden age of rail transport, when steam locomotives ruled the rails and travel by train was an exciting and romantic adventure. The King George engine, with its impressive size and power, represents the pinnacle of steam locomotive engineering and remains a cherished symbol of the railway's rich history.
