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
In this print titled "Power cut at a Hampstead Pub circa July 1947" we are transported back to the atmospheric ambiance of a small group of people gathered in a local pub. Taken by George Greenwell, an acclaimed photographer of the 20th century, this snapshot captures a unique moment frozen in time. The scene unfolds amidst an unexpected power outage, casting the interior into dimly lit shadows. The smoky air adds to the mysterious allure as patrons huddle together, their faces illuminated by candlelight and faint rays seeping through partially drawn curtains. Bottles line the bar, hinting at conversations shared over drinks that now continue uninterrupted despite the lack of electricity. This image evokes nostalgia for simpler times when public houses were cherished social hubs where communities came alive with laughter and camaraderie. It serves as a reminder that even during challenging moments such as power cuts, human connection remains resilient. As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph from Memory Lane Prints' collection, we find ourselves immersed in history. We become witnesses to ordinary lives intertwined within extraordinary circumstances - captured forever by George Greenwell's lens. This print is not just an artwork; it is a portal inviting us to step back in time and experience firsthand the charm and resilience of those who lived through it all.
