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 print captures a bustling scene on Waterloo Bridge in 1930, showcasing a unique blend of old-world charm and modern innovation. The image is filled with a mix of horse-drawn carts and motor cars navigating the busy streets, creating a fascinating juxtaposition of transportation methods from the early 20th century.
The historical significance of this snapshot is palpable, offering viewers a glimpse into the social fabric of Britain during this era. The chaotic traffic jam on the bridge serves as a reminder of how far we've come in terms of urban development and infrastructure.
As you study the details within the frame, you can't help but be transported back in time to witness firsthand the sights and sounds that defined daily life in 1930s London. From the clatter of hooves on cobblestone streets to the hum of engines powering through crowded thoroughfares, every element in this photograph tells its own story.
Mary Evans Picture Library has expertly preserved this moment in history for future generations to appreciate and learn from. It's not just an image frozen in time; it's a window into a bygone era that continues to shape our understanding of society today.
