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 early 1900s, we are transported back in time to the charming village of Helford in Cornwall. The Old Post Office takes center stage, its rustic stone facade standing proudly amidst a picturesque rural backdrop. With its quaint architecture and timeless charm, it serves as a window into Edwardian-era life. A man with distinct sideburns stands outside the post office, his presence adding character to the scene. Dressed in traditional Cornish attire, he exudes an air of authenticity that perfectly complements the rustic setting. His gaze seems fixed on something beyond our view, perhaps lost in thought or simply observing daily life unfold. The photographer behind this remarkable image is Arthur William Jordan, whose keen eye for detail captured not only a moment frozen in time but also an essence of Cornwall's rich heritage. Through his lens, we glimpse a bygone era when simplicity reigned supreme and community thrived within these idyllic surroundings. This print captures more than just architectural beauty; it encapsulates an entire era defined by its distinctive style and way of life. It invites us to reflect upon our own connection to history and appreciate how much has changed over the years while cherishing what remains unchanged – like the enduring spirit of rural communities such as Helford in beautiful Cornwall.
