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 early 20th century vintage press photograph captures a significant moment in Canadian history at the Hudsons Bay Company post office and railway station in Lost Lake, Canada. Dated between the 1910s and 1930s, the image portrays a group of determined men, dressed in heavy coats and hats, preparing to embark on a journey that would change their lives forever. The Hudsons Bay Company post office and railway station served as the starting point for prospectors setting off to search for gold in the Red Lake Gold Rush of the 1920s. The discovery of gold in the Red Lake area of Ontario ignited a frenzy of activity, drawing thousands of hopeful miners from all over the world to the remote and rugged wilderness of northern Ontario. The men in the photograph are seen gathered around the railway station, their faces etched with a mix of excitement and apprehension. They are dressed in the practical clothing of the time, with heavy coats, hats, and sturdy boots, ready to face the harsh Canadian countryside. The image captures the spirit of adventure and the promise of a new beginning that drew so many to the Red Lake Gold Rush. The photograph is a testament to the rich history of Canada's mining industry and the pioneering spirit of those who came before us. Taken in gelatin silver process, the image has a timeless quality that transports us back to a bygone era. The newspaper in the foreground adds to the sense of history and the importance of the role of the press in documenting and sharing stories of the time.
