1839 Ascot


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, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back in time to the historic Gold Cup Day at Ascot Racecourse in 1839. The image, a testament to the rich history of horse racing, showcases the excitement and elegance that has long been associated with this esteemed sport. The scene is set against the backdrop of a grandstand filled with fashionably dressed spectators, their wide-brimmed hats and colorful attire adding a vibrant touch to the black-and-white image. The anticipation is palpable as the horses and jockeys prepare for the race, their muscles taut and eyes focused on the finish line. The Gold Cup, a prestigious trophy that has been the prize for the most prestigious race at Ascot since its inception in 1807, sits proudly atop a table in the center of the grandstand. The winner of the race will be the fortunate horse and rider to bear the honor of lifting the Gold Cup aloft, a moment that would have secured their place in racing history. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the meticulous preparation that went into the event. Grooms attend to their horses, ensuring their saddles are secure and their coats are gleaming. Jockeys, clad in their iconic silks, confer with trainers and owners, seeking last-minute advice and reassurance. This photograph is a reminder of the enduring allure of horse racing and the role that Ascot has played in shaping its storied past. From the fashionable crowds to the thrilling competition, the tradition and excitement of Gold Cup Day at Ascot continues to captivate audiences, much as it did over 180 years ago.
