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.

1. Title: "A Glance into the Past: Marquette Avenue's Grand Architecture, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA" Caption: Step back in time with a captivating view of Marquette Avenue in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA, circa 1920. This evocative photograph showcases an impressive lineup of architectural gems that once defined the city's skyline. The image highlights three iconic structures: the Medical Arts Building, Rand Tower, and Foshay Tower. Beginning on the left, the Medical Arts Building, with its striking Beaux-Arts design, stands tall with its ornate façade adorned with intricate detailing, reflecting the era's commitment to grandeur and sophistication. The Medical Arts Building was a hub for the city's medical community and housed numerous offices, making it a vital part of Minneapolis' healthcare landscape. Moving to the center, the Rand Tower, with its distinctive stepped-back design, is a testament to the architectural innovation of the time. This 32-story Art Deco masterpiece was the tallest building in Minneapolis when it was completed in 1929. Its sleek lines and elegant design continue to captivate visitors and residents alike. Lastly, on the far right, the Foshay Tower, also known as the "Woolworth Tower," rises majestically, its Moorish Revival style a stark contrast to the more modern structures around it. Completed in 1929, this 327-foot-tall tower was the tallest building in Minnesota for over 50 years. Its observation deck offered breathtaking views of the city, making it a popular destination for tourists and locals alike. This photograph provides a glimpse into the rich architectural history of Minneapolis during the 1920s, a time when the city's skyline was defined by its grandeur and ambition. These structures, while no longer the tallest or newest, continue to stand as symbols of the city's proud past.
