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.

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
1. Title: The Western Ambulance Station at Seagrave Road, Fulham: A Historical Gateway to Healthcare 2.. This evocative photograph captures the entrance to the Western Ambulance Station, located on Seagrave Road in Fulham, London. Established in 1877, this ambulance station was an essential component of the Western Fever Hospital, which was the fourth such institution to be erected by the Metropolitan Asylums Board (MAB). The MAB, founded in 1869, assumed responsibility for the care of certain classes of the sick poor in metropolitan London. The Western Fever Hospital, a vital part of London's public health infrastructure, was opened in 1877. This image showcases the entrance to the ambulance station, which served as the gateway for those in need of medical assistance. The hospital site, which later became Fulham Hospital, played a pivotal role in addressing the health concerns of the community during a time when diseases such as fever were prevalent. The Metropolitan Asylums Board, an early precursor to the National Health Service, took on the responsibility of caring for the sick poor in London, recognizing the importance of accessible healthcare for all. The Western Ambulance Station, with its imposing yet welcoming entrance, stands as a testament to the dedication and commitment of the MAB to improving the lives of the less fortunate. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a poignant reminder of the historical significance of the Western Ambulance Station and the essential role it played in the provision of healthcare services in Fulham during the late 19th century.
