23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 from the Sheffield City Archives takes us back to the bustling industrial landscape of Neepsend in 1897. The image showcases Samuel Osborn and Co. Limited, Rutland Works, a prominent steel manufacturing facility that played a pivotal role in shaping the city's thriving industry during this era. The photograph offers a glimpse into the heart of Neepsend's industrial prowess, with towering chimneys billowing smoke against a backdrop of gritty factories and warehouses. The sheer scale of Rutland Works is awe-inspiring, as it stands as a testament to Sheffield's status as one of Britain's leading centers for steel production. Intriguingly, this snapshot also provides insight into the lives and labor conditions of workers during this time. Though absent from the frame itself, one can imagine countless men and women toiling tirelessly within these walls - their dedication fueling Sheffield's economic growth. As we observe this historical artifact today, it serves as both an homage to our industrial heritage and a reminder of how far we have come since then. This image encapsulates an era when steel was king and Neepsend thrived on its relentless energy. Preserved through time by the Local Studies Library at 914.274 SQ collection, this print allows us to appreciate not only Samuel Osborn and Co. 's contribution but also pays tribute to all those who shaped Sheffield into what it is today – an enduring symbol of innovation and resilience in the face of change.
