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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, titled 'Street in Bombay (Mumbai) 1860s' by Samuel Bourne, offers a fascinating glimpse into the bustling streets of Bombay (now Mumbai) during the 19th century. The image, taken between the 1870s and 1890s, showcases the city's rich history and cultural diversity. Bourne, a renowned British photographer, captured this scene during the Victorian era when Bombay was an important center for trade and commerce. The photograph reveals a busy street filled with a mix of architectural styles, reflecting the city's multicultural heritage. Traditional Indian structures made of brick and stone stand alongside European-style buildings with grand columns and arches. The photograph also reveals the daily life of the city's residents. People from various occupations can be seen going about their work, including a group of men working on a job site, a vendor selling goods, and a man leading a horse-drawn cart. The image also showcases the diverse population of the city, with people of different races and religions coexisting peacefully. The scenery in the photograph is further enhanced by the intricate details of the buildings, the traditional Indian clothing, and the horse-drawn carriages and carts that were the primary mode of transport during that era. The photograph is an albumen print, a popular photographic process during the 19th century, which produced high-quality, detailed images. This photograph is an invaluable historical record of Bombay during the 1860s, offering insights into the city's architectural, cultural, and social landscape of that era. It is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of Bombay, India, or photography in general.
