FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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.

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 captures the awe-inspiring sight of the High Tide of the River Thames in Lambeth, London, in the year 1850. The image, titled "Hide Tide, Overflow of the River Thames, Vine Street, Lambeth," offers a glimpse into the past when the natural phenomena of the Thames' flooding caused significant disruption to the urban landscape. The photograph showcases the bustling streets of Lambeth, with Vine Street and York Road visible in the foreground. The water from the Thames has spilled over its banks, submerging the streets and creating a surreal scene. The suspension bridge in the distance, likely Hungerford Bridge, adds to the sense of scale and drama. The banner hanging from a building in the background reads "Hide Tide," a term used to describe the highest tide of the Thames, which occurs when the moon, sun, and Earth align, causing an unusually high tidal surge. The flooding was a common occurrence in the 1800s, and the streets of Lambeth were no strangers to the destructive power of the river. Despite the chaos caused by the floodwaters, the photograph also reveals the resilience and adaptability of the people of Lambeth. The horses and carts continue to navigate the flooded streets, and the people go about their daily business as best they can. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the natural forces that shape our world and the human spirit that endures in the face of adversity.
