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 captures the Sydney Harbour Bridge in its final stages of construction, nearing completion in 1931. At the time of its opening, this engineering marvel stood as the largest suspension bridge in the world, a title it held for over a decade. Located in Sydney, Australia, the bridge spans the beautiful harbor and connects the city's North Shore with the central business district. The Sydney Harbour Bridge is an iconic symbol of Australian history and transport infrastructure. Its construction was a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance, with over 14,000 workers contributing to its build. The bridge's impressive design features two towers, each standing at a height of 134 meters, and a total length of 1,149 meters. The bridge's suspension cables, which can be seen in this photograph, were a marvel of engineering in their own right. Each cable weighed over 1,200 tons and was made up of thousands of individual wires. The bridge's construction was not without its challenges, with the project facing numerous delays and setbacks. However, the determination of the workers and engineers ultimately paid off, and the bridge was officially opened on March 19, 1932. Today, the Sydney Harbour Bridge remains an essential part of Sydney's transport infrastructure, carrying over 160,000 vehicles and 12,000 pedestrians and cyclists every day. It is a testament to the past and a symbol of progress, connecting the city's past and present in a way that few other structures can. This photograph offers a glimpse into a moment in history when the impossible became possible, and a new era of transportation began.
