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
Fond du Lac Public Library, Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, USA, 1906: A Window into the Past Nestled in the heart of Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, the Public Library stands as a beacon of knowledge and community. Established in the early 1900s, this historic library building, constructed in 1906, has been a cherished institution for over a century. The name Fond du Lac, meaning 'bottom of the lake' in French, aptly describes the city's location at the southern tip of Lake Winnebago. In this photograph, taken in 1906, we see the library's grand facade, adorned with intricate stonework and tall, arched windows. The library's classical design reflects the architectural trends of the time, showcasing the community's commitment to education and culture. The image reveals a bustling scene, with horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians passing by, adding to the vibrant energy of the town. The library's doors have always been open to all, providing a sanctuary for learning and discovery. The 1906 photograph captures a moment in time, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the enduring role that libraries play in our communities. They serve as repositories of knowledge, gathering places for learning, and cultural hubs, fostering a love for reading and a commitment to lifelong learning. As we admire this photograph, we are transported back to a time when the world was a little smaller, and the library was the heart of the community. The Fond du Lac Public Library continues to uphold this tradition, remaining an essential part of the city's rich history and a vital resource for its residents.
