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 from the Illustrated London News archives captures a momentous occasion in British royal history: the presentation of wedding gifts to Princess Alexandra of Denmark (1844-1925) as she prepared for her marriage to Prince Edward, later King Edward VII, in 1863. The exquisite array of jewels, showcased in this image, were carefully selected and crafted by esteemed British jewellers Garrard, with the exception of the bracelet on the bottom left, which was a gracious gift from the ladies of Manchester and was created by Hunt and Roskell. The stunning jewellery included a magnificent diamond necklace, a pearl and diamond brooch, and a captivating tiara adorned with diamonds and pearls. The future Queen's bridal attire was further enhanced by the elegant diamond diadem, which would later become a cherished part of the British royal jewellery collection. Princess Alexandra's marriage to Prince Edward, the Prince of Wales, took place on March 10, 1863, at St. James's Palace in London. The union between the Danish princess and the future monarch marked the beginning of a new chapter in British royalty, and the presentation of these beautiful and thoughtful gifts served as a testament to the love and admiration bestowed upon the young couple. This evocative image, taken in the 1860s, offers a glimpse into the grandeur and splendour of a royal wedding and the enduring allure of the jewels that have become synonymous with the British monarchy.
