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
Hammersmith Bridge: A Victorian Engineering Marvel This photograph showcases the iconic Hammersmith Bridge, the first suspension bridge to span the River Thames in west London. Completed in 1887, this engineering marvel was the brainchild of Sir Joseph Bazalgette, a renowned civil engineer, who designed the bridge to address the growing transportation needs of the city. The Hammersmith Bridge stands as a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the Victorian era. Suspension bridges were a relatively new concept in bridge engineering at the time, and the construction of Hammersmith Bridge marked a significant advancement in the field. The bridge's distinctive design, featuring two towers and a central span of 328 meters, was both elegant and functional. The bridge's completion in 1887 was a cause for celebration, as it not only provided a much-needed transportation link between the north and south banks of the River Thames but also served as a symbol of progress and engineering prowess. The bridge's opening also marked the beginning of a new era in bridge building, with suspension bridges becoming increasingly popular for their strength, durability, and ability to span large bodies of water. This photograph, taken in the late 1800s, captures the Hammersmith Bridge in all its glory, with the River Thames gently flowing beneath it and the surrounding landscape providing a picturesque backdrop. The bridge remains an enduring symbol of London's rich history and engineering heritage, attracting visitors from around the world who marvel at the ingenuity and vision of those who built it over a century ago.
