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, taken in 1905, showcases the thriving textile industry of Dundee, Scotland, with a focus on J & A D Grimond Ltd, Weavers and Spinners. The image captures the grandeur and intricacy of the industrial process, as the Bow Bridge and Maxwelltown factories stand proudly in the background. The Grimond brothers' company was a significant player in the city's rich textile heritage, contributing to the region's reputation as the 'City of Discovery.' The Edwardian era, with its distinctive fashion trends and societal norms, is beautifully encapsulated in this image. The workers, dressed in their uniforms, are seen operating the machinery with precision and dedication, reflecting the industrious spirit of the time. The weaving and spinning processes were labor-intensive and required a high level of skill, making the textiles produced in Dundee highly sought after both domestically and internationally. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, revealing the intricacies of the textile industry and the lives of the workers who played a crucial role in its success. The factories, with their impressive chimneys and imposing structures, stand as testament to the ingenuity and determination of the people of Dundee during the early 1900s. This photograph serves as a valuable souvenir of Scotland's industrial past and the pivotal role that textile manufacturing played in shaping the city's history.
