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.

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 circa 1885, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and significance of The Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, a landmark of Independent Reformed Baptist history. Located in the heart of Elephant and Castle, this imposing structure was the largest non-conformist church of its day in 1861, reflecting the growing influence and prominence of the Baptist faith in the city. The Metropolitan Tabernacle was pastored by the renowned Baptist preacher, Charles Haddon Spurgeon, who is considered one of the most influential figures in Baptist history. Spurgeon's powerful sermons and commitment to spreading the gospel attracted thousands of worshippers, filling the Tabernacle's vast interior to capacity. The church's impressive architecture, with its tall spire and ornate details, is a testament to the dedication and vision of its congregation. The Metropolitan Tabernacle represented more than just a place of worship; it was a beacon of hope and spiritual guidance for the people of London and beyond. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era when religious institutions played a central role in shaping the spiritual and social fabric of communities. The Metropolitan Tabernacle, with its rich history and enduring legacy, remains an important part of London's religious and cultural heritage.
