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 captures the haunting beauty of Ravenscraig Steel Works, situated in Motherwell, North Lanarkshire, Scotland. Taken in 1978 from an aerial perspective, it offers a unique glimpse into the industrial landscape of this historic site. The image portrays a scene that is both mesmerizing and thought-provoking. The photograph showcases the immense scale of Ravenscraig Steel Works with its towering chimneys dominating the skyline. These colossal structures emit plumes of smoke into the atmosphere, creating an ethereal ambiance against a backdrop of grey clouds. The contrast between the billowing smoke and desolate surroundings evokes a sense of mystery and intrigue. Amongst the vast expanse lies scattered debris, hinting at the remnants left behind by years of industrial activity. This inclusion adds depth to the photograph, reminding us of our complex relationship with progress and its impact on our environment. While not explicitly mentioning commercial use or delving into historical context about Ravenscraig Steel Works as a company, this image serves as an artistic representation rather than documentation for business purposes. It invites viewers to reflect upon humanity's ability to shape landscapes through industry while raising questions about sustainability and environmental responsibility. In essence, this powerful print encapsulates both beauty and decay within one frame - inviting us to contemplate our past while considering our future choices carefully.
