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 photograph captures the majestic Woodcock, a powerful A4 Class steam locomotive No 60029, in all its glory. Taken by renowned photographer Eric Treacy around 1954, this print showcases the iconic locomotive billowing thick clouds of smoke as it emerges from Copenhagen Tunnel near London Kings Cross station. The sheer power and elegance of the Woodcock is evident in every detail of this image. Its sleek design and impressive size dominate the frame, while the billowing smoke adds an air of drama to the scene. The intensity of steam emanating from its chimney symbolizes both its strength and determination as it pulls a Newcastle-bound express passenger train. Treacy's skillful composition allows us to witness this momentous event firsthand. The contrast between light and shadow creates a sense of depth, drawing our eyes towards the heart of the action. The blurred background hints at speed and motion, emphasizing that this is no ordinary train journey. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history captured through Treacy's lens, we are transported back to an era when steam locomotives ruled the railways. This photograph serves as a testament to their grandeur and reminds us why they hold such a special place in our hearts today.
