1830s 1836 Ascent Ballooning Gondola Passengers Striped Stripes Vauxhall Waving
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
This photograph captures the thrilling moment of the Royal Vauxhall Balloon's third ascent on September 27, 1836. In the image, Charles Green, the daring balloonist, waves enthusiastically from the wicker gondola as he ascends into the early autumn sky. Accompanied by fellow passengers, they embark on an exhilarating journey, leaving the bustling streets of Vauxhall behind. The strikingly red and white balloon, adorned with intricate stripes and a prominent Union Jack flag, rises gracefully against the backdrop of the clear blue sky. The passengers, dressed in fashionable attire of the 1830s, appear both excited and somewhat apprehensive as they are transported aloft, their expressions reflecting the mixture of anticipation and trepidation that came with early ballooning. With the elegance of a bird in flight, the Royal Vauxhall Balloon ascends, leaving the world below momentarily behind. This photograph is a captivating snapshot of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the early days of human aviation and the allure of flight.
