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.

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, taken circa 1905, depicts a bustling scene at the Northern end of Queen Victoria Street in London, with the iconic Statue of Queen Victoria standing proudly atop Blackfriars Bridge in the background. The street is a vibrant hive of activity, with horse-drawn cabs and carts jostling for position alongside early motorized taxis. The clatter of hooves and the hiss of steam are drowned out by the cacophony of voices and the rhythmic clanging of metal against cobblestones. Queen Victoria's regal visage, framed by the ornate archway of the bridge, watches over the bustling cityscape with a sense of quiet authority. The statue, erected in 1845, has long been a symbol of the monarch's reign and the enduring power of the British monarchy. The scene is further enlivened by the presence of fire and life insurance bollards, their bright red paint a stark contrast against the gray stone of the bridge and the cobblestones. The lampposts, their globes aglow with the soft, yellow light of gas, cast long, flickering shadows across the street. A hand reaches out from the foreground, beckoning a passing cab. The driver, dressed in a smart uniform, reins in his horse, ready to whisk his passenger away to their destination. The sense of movement and energy is palpable, a testament to the vitality and dynamism of London in the early 1900s. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, a moment frozen in time that offers a unique perspective on the history and character of one of the world's greatest cities.
