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 takes us back in time to Ipswich station, circa 1911. The image captures a mesmerizing view from the Ranelagh Road Crossing signal box, offering a glimpse into the bustling railway life of that era. In the foreground, we see the branch leading to the lower goods yard, with coal wagons neatly lined up against stops. These wagons were essential for fueling locomotives during this period of steam-powered rail travel. As our eyes wander towards the background reception sidings, we notice Great Eastern Railway horse boxes and a passenger train cattle box waiting patiently on their tracks. The architecture of Ipswich station stands tall and proud as it dominates the scene. This man-made structure serves as both a symbol of progress and a hub for transportation in this historic town. It is fascinating to imagine how many lives have been touched by this very spot throughout its existence. Transportation has always played an integral role in connecting people and places, shaping societies along its path. This photograph offers us a glimpse into railway history - an era when trains were not only means of transport but also symbols of innovation and adventure. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, let's appreciate the significance of Ipswich station and all those who contributed to its legacy – engineers, conductors, passengers alike – each leaving their mark on this grand tapestry called rail travel.
