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 evocative photograph, taken from Richmond Hill in 1885, captures the industrial aspect of Leeds in England during the 1880s. The scene is dominated by the towering chimneys of factories belching out thick, smokey plumes into the grey sky. The city's industrial might is on full display, with the intricate web of buildings and machinery stretching out before the viewer. The landscape is a stark contrast to the natural beauty of the surrounding hills and countryside. The once tranquil landscape has been transformed into a bustling hub of industry, with the sounds of clanging metal and hissing steam filling the air. The smoke-filled atmosphere adds a sense of urgency and intensity to the scene, as the relentless pace of production continues unabated. The photograph transports us back to the 19th century, a time when the Industrial Revolution was in full swing. Leeds was at the forefront of this revolution, with its textile industry and manufacturing sector driving the city's growth. The photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the people of Leeds, who harnessed the power of steam and coal to transform the city into a major industrial powerhouse. Despite the smokey conditions, there is a sense of awe and wonder in the photograph. The industrial scene is a marvel of human achievement, a testament to the power of innovation and progress. The photograph also serves as a reminder of the environmental cost of industrialization, with the smog and pollution a harbinger of the health issues that would plague industrial cities in the decades to come.
