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.

1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: The 1944 Five Pound Note from the Bank of England This photograph presents an authentic and intriguing look at a historical artifact - a five pound note issued by the Bank of England during World War II, in the year 1944. The note, now a precious relic of the past, bears the signature of the Governor of the Bank of England, Sir John Anderson, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, John Maynard Keynes. The design of the note is a testament to the artistic and innovative spirit of the time. The obverse side features a portrait of King George VI, while the reverse showcases an image of Tudor roses and the emblem of the Bank of England. The intricate patterns and security features, such as the watermark and the microprinting, are a marvel of the era's printing technology. The 1944 five pound note was issued during a time of great upheaval and change. World War II was raging across Europe, and the British economy was undergoing significant transformation. The Bank of England played a crucial role in maintaining financial stability during these challenging times, and the issue of new banknotes, like this one, was an essential part of that effort. Today, this 1944 five pound note is a valuable reminder of the past and a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the British people. It is a fascinating piece of history that continues to capture the imagination of collectors, historians, and anyone with an interest in the story of money and its role in shaping our world. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a unique and up-close view of this historical artifact. It invites us to explore the rich history of the Bank of England and the stories that lie hidden within the folds of this beautifully designed note.
