Bridgend Closed Coast Coastal Danger Paddling Pool Porthcawl Rocks Sign
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
This print takes us back to the coastal town of Porthcawl in Wales, circa 1995. The image showcases the former pool, nestled beautifully amidst rugged rocks at Porthcawl front. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported to a time when locals and visitors alike would gather here for moments of leisure and enjoyment. The pool's closure is evident through the weathered sign that stands nearby, serving as a poignant reminder of its once vibrant existence. Despite its abandonment, there is an undeniable allure to this scene; it exudes both tranquility and danger simultaneously. The crashing waves against the rocks remind us of nature's untamed power while inviting thoughts of adventurous paddling in calmer waters. Alan Grist skillfully captures this moment in time with his lens, preserving not only the physicality but also the essence of this place. His photograph allows us to reflect on memories made by those who have walked these shores before us - laughter echoing across water-filled days spent under sunny skies. As we admire this piece from Memory Lane Prints, let it serve as a testament to our shared human experience - one that transcends generations and connects us all through nostalgia for simpler times spent by the coast.
