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 transports us back in time to the golden era of railway travel. The poster, created by renowned artist Norman Wilkinson, showcases the picturesque town of Kendal nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Oxenholme in the Lake District. The scene is a perfect blend of rural countryside charm and majestic hills that seem to touch the heavens. As we gaze at this artwork, we can almost feel the crisp mountain air and hear the gentle rustle of leaves in harmony with distant train whistles. Wilkinson's masterful use of color and perspective draws our attention to every detail: from quaint cottages dotting the landscape to winding country roads leading towards hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. The vibrant hues evoke a sense of tranquility and invite us on an enchanting journey through this idyllic region. This poster was originally designed as part of an advertising campaign for London Midland & Scottish Railway (LMS) during their operation between 1923-1947. It served as a visual invitation for travelers seeking respite from bustling city life, beckoning them towards Kendal's serene beauty. Today, preserved within National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print serves as a timeless reminder of an era when railways were not just modes of transportation but gateways into unexplored realms filled with natural wonders. It captures both history and artistry in one frame, allowing us to appreciate not only Wilkinson's talent but also the enduring allure that lies within Kendal and its surrounding
