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
The Old Castle, Canonbury: A Glimpse into London's Rich History The Old Castle in Canonbury, London, stands proudly as a testament to the city's illustrious past. Originally built as the manor house of Canonbury between 1509 and 1532 by William Bolton of St Bartholomew's Priory, this historic edifice has undergone several transformations throughout the centuries. In the late 16th century, Sir John Spencer, Lord Mayor of the City of London, undertook a significant renovation project. One of the most notable additions was the construction of the castle's impressive tower, which can be seen in this photograph taken circa 1909. Throughout history, the Old Castle has been graced by the presence of many esteemed figures. Francis Bacon, the renowned philosopher and statesman, and Oliver Goldsmith, the celebrated poet and playwright, are among the notable residents who have called this castle home. Today, the Old Castle continues to hold historical significance. It now serves as a Masonic research centre, providing a sanctuary for those seeking to delve deeper into the mysteries of the past. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time, imagining the lives of those who once walked these halls and the stories they have to tell.
