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
November 1928: A Serene Retreat for the Modern Man - Mans Study, an Exhibition at Waring and Gillow, Oxford Street Step into a tranquil and sophisticated world of quiet contemplation and intellectual pursuit, as we present a glimpse into the 'Mans Study' exhibition held at the esteemed Waring and Gillow furniture house on Oxford Street in November 1928. This photograph showcases a study adorned with English walnut ply walls, a testament to the new British furniture trend that was sweeping through the design world. The study, a complete home in the modern manner, boasts a simple style, free from mouldings or enrichments, allowing the beauty of the walnut ply to take center stage. The room's lighting is arranged purely for books and reading, casting a warm and inviting glow over the space. Waring and Gillow, a famous name in British furniture history, showcased this import from the 21st ILN (Illustrated London News) as part of their extensive collection. The exhibition marked a departure from the ornate and opulent styles of the past, embracing a more minimalist and functional approach that resonated with the modern sensibilities of the time. The walnut ply panelling, a novelty in the world of furniture, was a significant shift from the traditional mahogany or oak woods that had previously dominated interiors. The 7-inch thick plywood panels were imported from the United States, adding an air of international flair to the exhibition. As we delve deeper into this historical snapshot, we can appreciate the timeless allure of a well-appointed study, a sanctuary for the mind and soul, where one can immerse themselves in the joys of reading and the pursuit of knowledge.
