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
This photograph, taken in 1884, captures Thomas Collins MP, a prominent City of London financier and Conservative Party politician, in an unguarded moment of vanity. The image, published in Vanity Fair magazine, was captured by renowned British photographer Henry Fawcett. Collins, later created Baron Addington in 1885, is seen here with a thoughtful expression, his eyes fixed on the mirror as he adjusts his cravat. Dressed in formal attire, complete with a top hat and cane, Collins exudes an air of sophistication and wealth. At the time, Collins was a highly influential figure in British politics and economics. He served as a Member of Parliament for several constituencies, including for the City of London, and was a key player in the Conservative Party. Collins was also a respected economist and financial expert, and his expertise was sought after by the government during times of economic instability. Despite his public persona as a serious and accomplished politician and economist, this photograph offers a glimpse into Collins' more personal side. The title "Old Mother Hubbard" added to the caption by the magazine suggests a playful and lighthearted take on the subject, adding to the intrigue and allure of this fascinating image.
