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
In this print from the late 1800s, we are transported to the picturesque landscapes of Cornwall, England. The image beautifully captures a timeless scene of rural life as a shepherd leads his flock along a leafy Cornish lane. With each step, the shepherd's presence exudes wisdom and tranquility, reflecting an intimate connection with nature that has been passed down through generations. The photograph's composition is enhanced by the stunning backdrop of lush greenery enveloping the narrow path. Sunlight filters through the foliage, casting dappled shadows on both man and beast alike. As our gaze follows their journey, we can almost hear the gentle rustling of leaves underfoot and feel a sense of serenity permeating every corner. Accompanying this harmonious tableau is an ever-loyal companion—a faithful dog faithfully trotting alongside its master. The bond between them is palpable; it speaks volumes about companionship and mutual trust in their shared daily endeavors. This remarkable snapshot into history was captured by an unknown photographer whose lens immortalized not only a moment frozen in time but also encapsulated Cornwall's rich cultural heritage. It serves as a testament to the enduring traditions that have shaped this region for centuries. Displayed within Royal Cornwall Museum's collection, this evocative print invites us to reflect upon our own relationship with nature while paying homage to those who have dedicated their lives to tending these lands – shepherds who continue to be guardians of tradition amidst changing times.
