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
Bask in the serene beauty of the Solway Coast as depicted in this British Railways (Scottish Region) poster from 1948-1965. The artwork, created by the renowned Charles Oppenheimer, transports us to the picturesque village of Kippford nestled along the shores of the Solway Firth. The Solway Coast, located in southwest Scotland, is renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and tranquil harbors. In this poster, Oppenheimer masterfully captures the essence of this idyllic scene, with the quaint village of Kippford framed by the shimmering waters of the firth and the rolling hills in the background. Boats moored in the harbor add a sense of activity and life to the peaceful village, while the sun casting a warm glow over the scene adds a touch of magic. The artist's use of color and composition invites us to imagine a leisurely day spent exploring the village and its surroundings. This poster, part of the National Railway Museum's Pictorial Collection, is a testament to the power of art to transport us to another place and time. The Solway Coast and Kippford may be a world away from our daily lives, but through this poster, we can experience their beauty and charm in an instant.
