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 from the Raddy Collection transports us back in time to the picturesque coastal town of Looe. The image beautifully captures the stark contrast between East and West Looe, showcasing two distinct scenes that define this charming destination. On the left side of the photograph, we are greeted by a sight straight out of a period drama. The grand Cooks Hotel stands proudly, its Victorian architecture commanding attention. A man and his trusty horse can be seen at the stables nearby, perhaps preparing for a leisurely ride along Looe's scenic trails. This glimpse into everyday life adds an authentic touch to this historical snapshot. In stark contrast on the right side of the print, we find ourselves immersed in another facet of Looe's rich heritage – Coastguards Cottages. These quaint dwellings were once home to those entrusted with safeguarding these treacherous shores against smugglers and other maritime dangers. Their sturdy construction and idyllic location overlooking West Looe Bay serve as a reminder of both past struggles and enduring resilience. The absence of any commercial references allows us to focus solely on appreciating this remarkable piece of history frozen in time. Through this photo print, we are invited to explore not only East & West Looe but also our own imagination as we envision what life must have been like during those bygone days when horses trotted along cobblestone streets and brave souls protected these rugged coastlines.
