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 to 1935, when the London & North Eastern Railway (LNER) sought to entice travelers to explore the breathtaking landscapes of Scotland. The poster, skillfully crafted by artist Frank Newbould, showcases a panoramic view of the Highlands with Fort William standing proudly in the foreground. Using large blocks of flat color, Newbould's artwork captures the essence and grandeur of this picturesque region. Measuring an impressive 1016 mm x 1270 mm, this print transports us to a time when rail travel was not only practical but also an opportunity for adventure and discovery. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we can almost feel ourselves being whisked away on a train journey through these majestic peaks and mountains. Frank Newbould's talent extended far beyond his work for LNER; he also lent his artistic skills to other prominent railway companies such as Great Western Railway (GWR), Orient Line, and Belgian Railways. His ability to capture the spirit of each destination through bold colors and striking compositions made him a sought-after artist in the golden age of travel posters. Preserved by National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, this print serves as both a testament to Newbould's artistic prowess and a reminder of Scotland's timeless allure. It invites us to embark on our own imaginary voyage through its rugged landscapes while igniting our curiosity about what lies beyond those distant peaks.
