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 print captures the hustle and bustle of Whitehall in 1875, as pedestrians and vehicles navigate through the congested streets of London. The scene depicts a snapshot of historical traffic conditions, showcasing the slow progress made by both modes of transport along this iconic road.
The image provides a glimpse into the past, offering a fascinating insight into how circulation and transportation were managed in the late 19th century. The crowded streets are filled with horse-drawn carriages, carts, and people on foot, all vying for space as they make their way down Whitehall.
As we observe this moment frozen in time, we can almost feel the energy and chaos that must have permeated through these busy thoroughfares. The sheer volume of activity captured in this photograph is a testament to the bustling nature of London's streets during this era.
Through this print from Mary Evans Prints Online, we are transported back to a time when life moved at a slower pace but was no less hectic. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of transportation efficiency while also highlighting the rich history embedded within London's roads and streets.
