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.

Senate House, University of London, as seen from Store Street in 1938: A Stunning Architectural Masterpiece of the 1930s This photograph, taken in 1938, showcases the iconic Senate House building of the University of London, as viewed from Store Street. Designed by the renowned Australian-born architect, Charles Holden, and completed in 1937, this modernist masterpiece was an instant architectural sensation. The Senate House, a central hub of the University of London, is a magnificent blend of Art Deco and functionalist design. Its imposing presence, with its tall, rectangular tower and intricate detailing, stands as a testament to the architectural innovations of the 1930s. The building's facade is adorned with intricate carvings, geometric patterns, and ornate sculptures, creating a visually stunning composition. The photograph captures the building's unique character, with its dark, imposing exterior contrasting against the bright, sunlit storefronts of the neighboring buildings on Store Street. The image also highlights the building's impressive scale, as it towers over the surrounding structures, making it a dominant feature of the London skyline. The Senate House was not only a symbol of architectural excellence but also a functional powerhouse. It housed the University of London Senate, the central academic body of the university, as well as the Senate House Library, which was one of the largest and most comprehensive research libraries in the UK. The building's design was intended to facilitate collaboration and knowledge sharing among scholars, making it a vital part of the academic community in London. This photograph, taken in 1938, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the architectural brilliance of Charles Holden and the enduring legacy of the Senate House building. Its striking design continues to captivate and inspire, making it a beloved landmark of the University of London and the city of London itself.
