23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
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. Overall outside dimensions are 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, a group of men are seen working diligently on the new railway track that runs alongside the serene and picturesque Cranberry Lake in Childwold, New York State, USA. The year is circa 1913, and the railway is being constructed for the Emporium Lumber Company. The rural countryside setting of the image exudes a sense of tranquility, with the lush greenery and the crystal-clear waters of the lake reflecting the blue sky above. The men in the photograph are deeply engrossed in their work, focusing intently on laying down the railway tracks. They are dressed in heavy workwear, with some wearing protective hats and goggles, indicating the physical demands of their labor. The railway, a vital mode of transport for the timber industry during the early 1900s, is an essential part of the industrial revolution that was transforming America at the time. The Emporium Lumber Company, a significant player in the lumber industry, relied heavily on the railway to transport its timber products from the forests to the markets. The construction of the railway not only facilitated the company's growth but also opened up new opportunities for the local community. The photograph captures a moment in history, showcasing the human effort and determination required to build the infrastructure that would shape the future of industry and transportation in rural America. The image is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the American spirit, with men working together to build something that would have a lasting impact on the community and the country as a whole. The railway, with its tracks running alongside the idyllic Cranberry Lake, is a symbol of progress and the relentless pursuit of development that characterized the early 1900s in America.
