Attached Barge Barges Funnel Lizard Woolwich
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 photograph captures the vintage charm of the River Thames at Woolwich, SE London, in the 1930s. The image showcases the tugboat named Lizard, skillfully attached to a row of barges, ready for a journey up or downstream. The tug's distinctive funnel, adorned with intricate patterns and puffs of smoke, adds an element of excitement and industry to the serene water scene. The Lizard, a powerful and versatile vessel, was an essential part of the Thames' transportation network during this era. Barges, which could carry large quantities of goods, were an economical and efficient means of moving heavy cargo around the city. Tugs like the Lizard were indispensable in maneuvering these barges through the river's busy waters, ensuring the smooth flow of commerce and trade. The 1930s, a time of transformation and progress, is beautifully encapsulated in this image. The tug Lizard, with its robust design and distinctive character, embodies the spirit of this era. The tranquil yet industrious atmosphere of the River Thames at Woolwich is a testament to the rich maritime history of London and the vital role that water transport played in the city's development.
