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.

Bathing to the Band in Berlin - An Idea for Our Seaside and a Suggestion to Brighton and Margate - A Musical Bathe in the Wannsee, 1911
EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph taken in 1911, a brass band plays lively tunes for bathers enjoying a sunny day at Wannsee Lake in Berlin, Germany. The serene outdoor setting is filled with the sounds of laughter, music, and the gentle lapping of the water against the shore. The bathers, both men and women, are fully clothed and appear to be fully engaged in the musical experience, some even dancing in the shallow water. The Edwardian era scene transports us back to a time when leisurely activities were a cherished part of daily life. The idea of a brass band playing for bathers was not an uncommon sight during this period, particularly in popular seaside resorts like Brighton and Margate in England. This photograph serves as a reminder of the simple pleasures that brought communities together and the joy that music can bring to any setting. The natural beauty of Wannsee Lake, with its crystal-clear waters and picturesque surroundings, adds to the allure of this scene. The lush greenery and the blue waters create a stunning contrast, making it an idyllic spot for a day out. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, inviting us to take a moment to appreciate the simple joys of life and the power of music to bring people together. This photograph, taken over a century ago, remains a timeless reminder of the enduring appeal of music and the joy of a day spent by the water. It is a snapshot of history that continues to inspire and delight, and a suggestion for modern-day seaside destinations to consider the addition of a musical element to their offerings.
