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
Step back in time with this vintage photograph of the Post Office and Exchange in Singapore, captured in the 1870s. The image presents a striking view of the historic administrative buildings that once stood as the heart of the city's government and commercial district. The Post Office, with its grand facade and imposing columns, exudes an air of authority and importance. The Exchange building, located adjacent to it, is a traditional two-story house with intricate architectural details, reflecting the blending of Eastern and Western influences that characterized Singapore's colonial past. The photograph offers a glimpse into the bustling urban scene of the 19th century. People in traditional attire can be seen milling about the square, engaging in lively conversations or conducting business transactions. Horse-drawn carriages and rickshaws line the road, adding to the scenic charm of the scene. The Post Office and Exchange served as crucial hubs of communication and commerce, connecting Singapore to the rest of the world. The exchange facilitated the trading of goods and currencies, while the post office ensured the efficient delivery of letters and parcels. This photograph is a testament to Singapore's rich cultural heritage and its transformation from a humble trading post to a modern metropolis. The buildings may have been replaced by modern structures, but their historical significance endures, making them cherished landmarks of Singapore's past.
