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
This print, dated 1872, showcases the principal breeds of horses that were in use in North America during that time. The image features six distinct horse breeds, arranged in two rows. On the left side, starting from the top, we see an American Trotter, a Heavy English Draught Horse, and a Morgan Horse. The American Trotter was a popular breed for its speed and agility, making it an excellent choice for transportation and farming. The Heavy English Draught Horse was brought over from Europe and was used extensively for heavy labor tasks such as plowing and hauling. The Morgan Horse, named after its founder, was a versatile breed that could be used for various purposes, including riding, driving, and light draft work. Moving on to the right side of the print, we find an Arabian Horse, a Horse of Normandy, and a Race Horse. The Arabian Horse, known for its elegance and endurance, was highly regarded for its superior racing abilities and was often used in endurance races. The Horse of Normandy, also known as the Norman Cob, was a powerful draft horse breed that was used for heavy labor tasks, particularly in the farming industry. Lastly, the Race Horse, with its sleek build and muscular physique, was bred specifically for racing and was the epitome of speed and power during that era. This print provides a fascinating glimpse into the diverse range of horse breeds that were in use in North America during the late 19th century. Each breed, with its unique characteristics and uses, played a crucial role in the development of the region's economy and transportation systems.
