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 photograph, taken in the year 1905, transports us back in time to the historic halls of King's College, located on the Strand in London. Established in 1829, King's College was one of the two founding colleges of the University of London, the other being University College London. The image showcases a group of students and faculty members gathered in front of the college's impressive Gothic Revival building. Dressed in academic robes and mortarboards, they exude a sense of scholarly pride and intellectual curiosity. The women students, some wearing long skirts and blouses, others in dresses, are seated on the steps, while the men stand behind them. The college's crest, featuring a king's crown and the motto "Scientia et Virtus" (Latin for "Knowledge and Virtue"), is proudly displayed on the building's façade. The image also reveals a glimpse of the college's beautiful gardens, with their vibrant flowers and lush greenery, adding to the serene atmosphere. King's College has a rich and storied history, with notable alumni including 14 Nobel laureates, 28 prime ministers of the United Kingdom, and numerous other influential figures. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a glimpse into the daily life of students and faculty at the college over a century ago. The photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a testament to the enduring legacy of King's College and the University of London, and serves as a reminder of the importance of knowledge and the pursuit of learning.
