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.

View of Londonderry,
EDITORS COMMENTS
an exquisite oil painting on panel created by English artists Jennens and Bettridge in 1848, offers a captivating glimpse into the past of the historic Irish city. The artists skillfully captured the picturesque scene of the Foyle River winding its way through the heart of Londonderry, with the iconic city walls and the imposing 17th-century Bishop's Gate standing proudly at the entrance. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring the bustling activity of the quayside to life, as merchants and fishermen go about their daily business. The painting's composition is masterful, with the river acting as a natural frame for the cityscape beyond. The play of light and shadow on the water adds depth and texture, while the reflection of the buildings and clouds on the surface creates a sense of serenity. The artists' use of oil paints allows for a rich, velvety texture and an almost three-dimensional quality to the image. Londonderry, also known as Derry, has a rich and complex history, and this painting provides a window into a specific moment in time. The city's walls, which date back to the 17th century, have played a significant role in its defense against various invaders throughout history. The painting's title, "View of Londonderry," suggests a peaceful and unassuming scene, but the city's past is far from tranquil. Jennens and Bettridge's "View of Londonderry" is a beautiful and evocative representation of a historic Irish city, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to thrive there today. The painting's intricate details and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, making it a must-see for anyone interested in Irish history or the art of oil painting.
