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 from the National Railway Museum takes us back to 1910, capturing a picturesque scene at Mildenhall's terminal station. The focal point of the image is the impressive goods shed, standing tall and sturdy in the center. Its red brick walls exude a sense of strength and reliability. To the left of the goods shed, a delightful border of roses adds a touch of natural beauty to this industrial setting. Their vibrant colors create a striking contrast against the backdrop of trains and tracks. On the right side, we catch sight of an enormous 50ft turntable next to an old-fashioned signal box. This mechanical marvel allowed locomotives to change direction effortlessly, ensuring smooth operations at this bustling railway hub. Behind the platform lies an end loading dock where wagons were loaded and unloaded with precision and efficiency. Adjacent to it are timber cattle pens, serving as temporary homes for livestock awaiting transportation. The sepia tones give this photograph an air of nostalgia, transporting us back in time when steam locomotives ruled these tracks. It serves as a reminder that railways were not just means of transport but also symbols of progress and connectivity during that era. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let's appreciate how imagination works alongside engineering marvels like those captured here - forever preserved within the archives at National Railway Museum.
