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 Kings Cross station, a bustling hub of British Railways during the mid-1970s. The image captures both the suburban and main line stations, highlighting their architectural grandeur and historical significance. Despite its lack of a specific date, this snapshot transports us back to an era when steam locomotives still roamed these platforms. The photograph exudes an air of nostalgia as we observe passengers scurrying about, eagerly boarding trains bound for various destinations across the country. The hustle and bustle is palpable; commuters in sharp suits rushing alongside families laden with suitcases, all eager to embark on their respective journeys. Kings Cross station stands tall amidst this vibrant scene, its Victorian façade commanding attention even amongst modern developments. Its distinctive red brickwork and ornate detailing serve as a testament to Britain's rich railway heritage. As we gaze upon this timeless image captured by Network Rail, it becomes evident that Kings Cross has always been more than just a transportation hub—it is a symbol of connectivity and human stories intertwining. This print not only immortalizes an important chapter in British rail history but also invites us to reflect on how our lives have been shaped by these monumental transport networks
