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
Step back in time with this print from the early 1900s, showcasing a row of charming thatched cottages nestled in the picturesque village of Mellingey, Cubert, Cornwall. The timeless beauty of these traditional Cornish dwellings is perfectly captured as they stand proudly against the backdrop of lush greenery. Intriguingly, a group of individuals has gathered outside one cottage, adding life and character to the scene. Dressed in elegant Victorian attire, their presence evokes a sense of nostalgia and curiosity about their lives during this bygone era. Two adorable dogs accompany them, further enhancing the warm and inviting atmosphere. A fascinating detail caught my eye on closer inspection: a sign adorning the wall to the left proudly declares "Offices New Wheal Leisure Mining Company". This small but significant glimpse into local history hints at an industry that once thrived within this idyllic community. Photographed by Samuel John Govier, this image transports us back to simpler times when thatch was still widely used for roofing. Its rustic charm remains intact even today as it continues to be cherished by residents and visitors alike
