17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 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 17x15 inches (431x381mm). 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 captures a wintry scene on Ludgate Hill in London during the early 20th century. The year was 1905, and the city was blanketed in rain, transforming the cobblestone streets into a slippery, muddy expanse. Despite the inclement weather, life in the bustling metropolis continued apace. In the foreground, a horse-drawn bus plods along the slick roadway, its passengers huddled against the elements as they cling to the sides for dear life. The horse, bundled up against the cold, looks understandably displeased with the situation. Nearby, a horse-drawn cart piles high with bundles of firewood, a reminder of the importance of warmth and comfort during the harsh winter months. The scene is a snapshot of social life in Britain during the early 20th century, a time when horse-drawn vehicles were still a common sight on the streets. The photograph invites us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of this bygone era, as the horse's hooves clatter against the wet pavement and the scent of woodsmoke wafts through the air. Ludgate Hill, a historic and bustling area of London, is shown here in all its winter glory. The photograph is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the people who lived and worked in this vibrant city, even in the face of challenging weather conditions.
