Media ID 9140005
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 vintage print captures the essence of G. W. R. Bourne End Station in 1893, showcasing its new platform coverings, waiting shed, and urinals. The image takes us back to a time when railway stations were not just functional spaces but architectural marvels that blended seamlessly with their surroundings. The newly installed platform coverings stand tall and proud, providing shelter for passengers from rain or shine. Their intricate design showcases the craftsmanship of the era and adds an elegant touch to the station's overall aesthetic. Adjacent to these coverings is a charming waiting shed where weary travelers could find respite while awaiting their trains. In this snapshot of history, even the smallest details matter – like the presence of urinals discreetly tucked away in one corner. These facilities demonstrate how railway companies strived to provide comfort and convenience for all passengers. As we gaze at this photograph, we are transported back in time; we can almost hear the hustle and bustle of steam engines arriving and departing from this picturesque station. It serves as a reminder that railways have always been more than just transportation systems – they are symbols of progress, connecting people across vast distances. Network Rail preserves such images not merely for commercial purposes but also as a testament to our rich heritage. This particular print allows us to appreciate the meticulous attention given to every aspect of G. W. R Bourne End Station's construction during that bygone era - an enduring legacy still admired today.
