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 evocative photograph captures a significant moment in the history of Ryde Pier and the Isle of Wight, as His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales, makes his way to the shore during his visit in 1926. The image, taken by Charles E Brown from the Royal Air Force Museum, showcases the electric-powered tram that once transported visitors and dignitaries along the pier. The interwar period was a time of great change and progress, and the introduction of electric trams was a testament to the modernization of transportation. The Prince's visit to the Isle of Wight was a much-anticipated event, and the people of Ryde were eager to showcase their town's latest technological advancements. The pier, which stretches out into the English Channel, has been a popular destination for tourists and locals alike since its construction in the late 1800s. The Prince's visit brought renewed attention to the pier and the town, and the electric tram was a symbol of the pier's modernization and its commitment to providing a comfortable and convenient experience for visitors. The Prince of Wales, who would later become King Edward VIII, is seen here stepping out of the tram and onto the pier, surrounded by a crowd of well-wishers and officials. The photograph captures the excitement and energy of the moment, as well as the sense of pride and community that comes with hosting a member of the royal family. This photograph is a reminder of a bygone era, when royal visits were a major event and transportation technology was advancing at a rapid pace. It also highlights the importance of preserving historical artifacts and memories, so that future generations can learn from and be inspired by the past.
