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.

Overlooking the Estuary, St Mawes, Cornwall (1937): A Glimpse into the Past This evocative photograph, taken in 1937, captures the breathtaking beauty and tranquility of St Mawes Estuary in Cornwall, England. The image, looking out from the historic town of St Mawes towards the Carrick Roads and the Falmouth River, transports us back in time to a bygone era. The quaint cottages and buildings nestled along the water's edge, with their slate roofs and whitewashed walls, are a testament to the rich history and character of this charming Cornish town. The estuary, dotted with boats and small vessels, reflects the clear blue sky above, creating a mirror-like effect that adds to the serene atmosphere. St Mawes, located near Truro and Falmouth, has long been a popular destination for visitors seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. The town's strategic location on the coast made it an important military stronghold throughout history, with the ruins of St Mawes Castle visible in the distance, overlooking the estuary. This photograph, taken almost a century ago, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the timeless beauty of St Mawes and the surrounding area. The estuary, with its ever-changing tides and weather, continues to captivate and inspire visitors, making it a must-see destination for anyone exploring the scenic coastline of Cornwall.
