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 photograph from the late 19th century showcases the innovative Appleby's Hoist, a direct-action hydraulic lift that revolutionized the way industries handled heavy lifting tasks. The hoist, depicted in the image, is not to be confused with the well-known Appleby's company, but rather an engineering marvel of its time. The hoist, a multi-story apparatus, is seen in the midst of a warehouse setting, with water barrels and pipes surrounding it. The power source for the hoist was water pressure, which was harnessed to lift heavy loads through a series of interconnected rods and pistons. The direct-action mechanism, as opposed to the more common indirect-action hoists, allowed for a more efficient and powerful lift, making it an invaluable asset to various industries. The Appleby's Hoist was a testament to the ingenuity and progress of the late 19th century, as it enabled industries to handle larger and heavier loads with ease. This photograph not only provides a glimpse into the past but also serves as a reminder of the significant role that innovative machinery played in shaping the industrial landscape. The Appleby's Hoist, with its robust design and impressive capabilities, paved the way for future developments in lifting technology and continues to inspire engineers and innovators to this day.
