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
1. Title: A Timeless Moment at Brompton Oratory, London, circa 1905 Description: This evocative photograph captures the essence of London in the early 1900s, with its unique blend of religious devotion, transportation innovation, and the bustling energy of the city. The image focuses on Brompton Oratory, a Roman Catholic church located in South Kensington, and its surrounding taxi cab rank. At the heart of the scene, the immaculate Brompton Oratory stands proudly, its Romanesque Revival architecture a testament to the enduring influence of Catholicism in the city. The ornate facade, adorned with intricate details and statues, draws the eye and invites reflection. The church's iconic dome, topped with a golden cross, reaches towards the heavens, symbolizing the spiritual connection between the faithful and their Creator. Beside the oratory, a horse-drawn taxi cab waits patiently at the rank, its driver attentively holding the reins. The cab, with its vintage design and the horse's gentle demeanor, adds a sense of tradition and charm to the scene. The horse, with its glossy coat and calm expression, seems to embody the tranquility and peace that the church represents. The photograph's composition invites the viewer to imagine the stories of the people who have passed through this scene – the devoted pilgrims seeking solace, the taxi drivers waiting for their next fare, and the horse-drawn cabs that once dominated the streets of London. This image offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the rich history and enduring beauty of Brompton Oratory and the city of London.
