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 print showcases the iconic Box Tunnel, a remarkable feat of engineering on the Great Western Railway. The image captures a cross-section view of Tunnel Number 1, revealing its intricate construction and impressive scale. Box Tunnel, located in Wiltshire, England, holds great historical significance as one of the most notable structures along this renowned railway line. Built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel in the mid-19th century, it stands as a testament to his innovative vision and engineering prowess. The photograph beautifully highlights the meticulous design and craftsmanship that went into creating this monumental tunnel. Its sheer size is awe-inspiring; with an overall length exceeding two miles, it remains an architectural marvel even today. The lighting within the tunnel adds depth to the image while emphasizing its grandeur. Shadows dance across the brickwork walls, enhancing their texture and bringing them to life. This print truly captures both the technical brilliance behind Box Tunnel's construction and its atmospheric allure. As part of Network Rail's collection, this print serves as a reminder of our rich railway heritage and pays homage to those who contributed to its creation. It invites viewers to appreciate not only the physical structure itself but also reflects upon how railways have shaped our world over time
