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.

Whipps Cross Hospital, Leytonstone, Essex, 1905: A Glimpse into the Past of Healthcare and Compassion This evocative photograph, taken in 1905, captures a moment in time at Whipps Cross Hospital in Leytonstone, Essex. Established in 1903 by the West Ham Union for the Sick Poor, this hospital was a beacon of hope and healing for those in need during the early 1900s. The Edwardian architecture of the building, with its grand facade and intricate details, stands as a testament to the commitment and dedication of those who sought to provide medical care to the less fortunate. The open balconies of the hospital, filled with patients in beds, offer a poignant reminder of the days before modern medical advancements and private rooms. The fresh air and sunlight, considered essential for the treatment and recovery of illnesses, were brought to the patients through these balconies. The law of fresh air and sunshine was a common practice during this era, and the hospital's design reflects this belief. The patients, dressed in their simple nightgowns, appear to be in various stages of recovery, their expressions a mix of hope and resignation. The balconies, open to the elements, offer a sense of freedom and connection to the world outside, even as the patients remain confined to their beds. Whipps Cross Hospital, with its commitment to the sick and poor, stands as a symbol of compassion and care during a time when such resources were scarce. This photograph, with its historical significance and emotional resonance, invites us to reflect on the journey of healthcare and the enduring human spirit that drives it forward.
