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
1. Title: "Sir George Newnes: The Pioneering Publisher and Parliamentarian of Late 19th Century Britain" Sir George Newnes (1851-1910) is depicted in this striking photograph, showcasing his distinctive beard and piercing gaze. Known for his groundbreaking contributions to the world of publishing and politics, Newnes is best remembered as the originator of the popular British magazine, Tit-Bits. Newnes' publishing career began in earnest in the late 1880s when he founded Tit-Bits, a weekly magazine that catered to the growing mass audience. The publication's unique blend of news, gossip, and entertainment quickly resonated with the public, and within a few years, it had become one of the most widely read magazines in the country. Newnes' innovative approach to journalism paved the way for the modern tabloid press. In addition to his publishing success, Newnes also pursued a political career. He was elected as the Member of Parliament (MP) for West Ham South in 1892, representing the Liberal Party. Newnes' dual roles as a publisher and an MP presented a unique set of challenges, but he navigated them with aplomb, using his platform to advocate for progressive policies and reforms. Despite his many accomplishments, Newnes remains an underappreciated figure in the annals of British history. This photograph serves as a reminder of his significant contributions to the worlds of publishing and politics, and the enduring impact of his pioneering spirit.
