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 tranquil scene from Kensington Gardens in London, a flock of sheep peacefully graze among the lush, verdant grasses, their woolly coats blending seamlessly with the rolling hills. The serene atmosphere is further enhanced by the presence of wooden deck chairs, inviting visitors to sit and bask in the summer sun's warm embrace. This idyllic tableau transports us back in time, offering a glimpse into the past when Kensington Gardens, much like Hyde Park, was used for grazing livestock. The dividing line between Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens is marked by the historic Ha-Ha, a sunken ditch with a hidden wall that was the first of its kind in the country. This ingenious design allowed for the open land to be divided without obstructing the view, a concept that was later adopted throughout the land. The Ha-Ha can be seen in the background of this photograph, a testament to the rich history of Kensington Gardens. As we gaze upon this charming image, it is easy to forget that sheep grazing in the gardens ended in 1935. However, the memory of this tradition lives on, adding another layer of depth to the already captivating history of Kensington Gardens. The sheep, with their gentle demeanor and unassuming presence, continue to captivate visitors and offer a sense of peace and tranquility, making this a scene that is as timeless as it is enchanting.
