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 aerial view of Dumplington, captured in the 1990s, showcases the proposed development site of what would later become the iconic Trafford Centre. Nestled in the heart of Greater Manchester, England, this photograph offers a glimpse into the early stages of transforming vast fields and serene landscapes into a bustling hub for shopping and leisure. The image captures an expansive stretch of greenery that will soon be replaced by modern infrastructure. The intricate network of motorways and roads crisscrossing through the frame hints at the accessibility and connectivity that this ambitious project aimed to achieve. Intriguingly, amidst nature's tranquility lies evidence of future progress - shops dotting the landscape like tiny specks hint at what is to come. These humble beginnings would eventually give rise to one of United Kingdom's largest retail destinations. The Trafford Centre itself needs no introduction; its grand opening on September 10th, 1998 marked a significant milestone in British retail history. Boasting an impressive retail size, it quickly became a beloved destination for shoppers from near and far. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded not only of how far Dumplington has come but also how transformative visions can shape our surroundings. This print serves as a testament to human ingenuity and ambition while preserving memories from an era when dreams were taking flight over open fields.
