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 evocative photograph captures the breathtaking view of The College Library in the historic university town of Cambridge, England, as seen from the left bank of the River Cam. The College, one of the oldest and most prestigious institutions of higher learning in the world, is steeped in history and tradition. Established in the 13th century, the College has been a beacon of scholarly pursuits for over 700 years. The Library, with its impressive Gothic architecture, is a testament to the enduring legacy of academic excellence. The arched windows, adorned with intricate stone carvings, allow the soft light to filter in, creating an ambiance that is both inspiring and serene. The bridge in the foreground, spanning the tranquil waters of the River Cam, adds to the picturesque scene. The bridge, a popular tourist attraction, has been a symbol of connection between the two banks of the river for centuries. The reflection of the bridge and the trees on the water adds a sense of calm and tranquility to the image. The photograph, taken in 1841, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of horse-drawn carriages and scholars in academic gowns. The image is a reminder of the enduring allure of Cambridge and its rich history, making it an essential addition to any collection of historical photographs or images of England. The College Library, with its grandeur and timeless beauty, continues to inspire generations of scholars and visitors alike, making it a must-see destination for anyone interested in history, academia, or the beauty of the past. This photograph is a treasure trove of history, a snapshot of a bygone era, and a tribute to the enduring legacy of Cambridge University.
