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 photograph, titled "A Selection of Baths: Standing and With Legs," offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing various bathing equipment from the late 19th century. The image, circa 1895, transports us back in time to an era when bathing was a luxurious and leisurely experience. The photograph features an intriguing assortment of baths, some with legs and others freestanding. The baths with legs, also known as hip baths, were popular during this period as they allowed the bather to be immersed in water up to their hips, providing a more comfortable and therapeutic bathing experience. The freestanding baths, on the other hand, required the bather to fill the tub with water using a bucket or a water pitcher, making them a more labor-intensive option. The historical context of this photograph is further emphasized by the presence of a toilet in the background. This suggests that the bathing area was a private space, where one could indulge in both bathing and relieving oneself in the comfort of their own home. The photograph also reveals the intricate designs and ornate details of the bathing equipment, which were considered essential items for the well-to-do households of the time. The elegant curves and intricate patterns of the baths, as well as the ornate handles and spouts, are a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating these beautiful pieces. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the world of bathing in the late 19th century and reminding us of the evolution of this essential daily ritual over time.
