Fleetwood Isle Paddle Steam Ship Steam Ships Steamer
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
This evocative photograph captures the moment the Monas Queen paddle steamer begins its journey from Fleetwood, Lancashire, towards the Isle of Man in 1890. The Monas Queen, a historical steamship and a proud symbol of maritime transport during the Victorian era, is shown leaving the English coastline with a plume of white smoke billowing from its stacks. The steamship's elegant design, with its ornate decorations and tall funnel, is a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company operated the Monas Queen, providing regular service between Fleetwood and the Isle of Man, making it an essential link for travelers and goods between the two locations. The journey across the Irish Sea was a popular one, as the Isle of Man offered visitors beautiful landscapes, a unique culture, and a chance to escape the hustle and bustle of urban life. The Monas Queen's departure from Fleetwood was a sight to behold, as crowds gathered to wave goodbye to friends and family members setting sail for the Isle of Man. The steamship's powerful engine would propel it across the sea, providing passengers with a comfortable and exciting journey. The sense of adventure and anticipation is palpable in this photograph, as the Monas Queen embarks on another voyage to the Isle of Man. This historical image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when steamships were the primary mode of transportation across the sea. It is a reminder of the rich maritime history that connects England and the Isle of Man, and the enduring allure of the open sea.
