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 charming photograph captures the proud moment of two gentlemen, proudly holding their champion rabbit and celebrating its hard-earned victory at a rabbit show in the 1920s. The rabbit, with its immaculately starched collar and ribbons adorning its ears, sits confidently on a plinth, its eyes gleaming with the excitement of the win. The proud owners, dressed in their Sunday best, beam with pride as they cradle their beloved pet, their faces reflecting the joy and satisfaction of their achievement. The ornate cup, symbolizing the rabbit's victory, rests on the plinth, adding to the sense of accomplishment and triumph. This image offers a glimpse into the social history of rabbit breeding and showing in the early 20th century, a pastime that was popular among many British communities during this era. The meticulous attention to detail, from the rabbit's grooming to the gentlemen's attire, highlights the dedication and passion that went into raising and exhibiting these beloved pets. This photograph is a delightful reminder of a bygone era, one that celebrated the simple pleasures of animal companionship and the thrill of competition.
