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 takes us back in time to the early 1900s, capturing a bustling scene on Fore Street in Probus, Cornwall. The image showcases a mixed group of individuals, predominantly children, striking poses for the photographer's lens. Interestingly, two figures can be seen peering out from the upstairs rooms of the Hawkins Arms pub. Above its door proudly hangs a sign displaying the name "Pollard" while another advertises "Good Accommodation for Cyclists". This charming detail suggests that this establishment catered not only to locals but also welcomed weary travelers passing through. In the distance stands the iconic Jubilee Lamp, casting its warm glow over this historic street. Its presence serves as a reminder of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebration and adds an air of grandeur to this quaint Cornish village. The photograph was skillfully captured by Samuel John Govier, who has expertly preserved this snapshot of Edwardian life in Cornwall. It offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when horse-drawn carriages traversed these cobbled streets and community spirit thrived within these walls. Displayed at Royal Cornwall Museum, this evocative print transports viewers back in time and allows them to immerse themselves in the rich history and charm of Probus Churchtown.
