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
Step back in time with this photograph of a bustling street scene outside Gants Hill Underground Station in Ilford, Essex, during the 1950s. The image transports us to a bygone era, filled with the sights, sounds, and social atmosphere of post-war Britain. The scene is set against the backdrop of the iconic Art Deco station, its ornate design a stark contrast to the simple yet functional architecture of the surrounding buildings. The station's name is prominently displayed on the sign, beckoning commuters to board the underground trains that would take them to their destinations. The sidewalk is filled with a diverse crowd, each person going about their day. A young woman in a stylish dress and heels walks confidently down the street, while a man in a suit and hat hurries along, glancing at his watch. Children play in the foreground, their laughter adding to the lively atmosphere. The street is lined with shops and cinemas, including the Odeon, which proudly displays its marquee advertising the latest films. The sidewalk is littered with the detritus of daily life - cigarette butts, apple cores, and discarded newspapers - a reminder that even in the past, life moved at a brisk pace. This photograph is a snapshot of a moment in history, capturing the social fabric of a community in the 20th century. It invites us to reflect on the past and appreciate the rich history that has shaped our present. Whether you're a history buff, an art lover, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of everyday life, this photograph is sure to inspire and delight.
