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 titled "Sheffield from Park Hill" by William Ibbitt in 1855 offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the rich history of Sheffield, Yorkshire. The image, sourced from an original at Sheffield Libraries (w02071), showcases the remarkable panoramic views that have defined this vibrant city for centuries. As we delve into the photograph, our eyes are immediately drawn to the towering Park Hill estate standing majestically against the backdrop of a bustling cityscape. Its grandeur and architectural splendor serve as a testament to Sheffield's industrial prowess during this era. The composition skillfully captures the essence of daily life in mid-19th century Sheffield. We can observe smoke billowing from factory chimneys, evidence of its thriving steel industry which propelled it onto the global stage. The streets below teem with activity as people go about their day, providing a snapshot of Victorian society. William Ibbitt's masterful eye for detail allows us to appreciate both the vastness and intricacy present within this panorama. From elegant churches and spires punctuating the skyline to rows upon rows of terraced houses nestled amongst green spaces, every element contributes to painting a vivid picture of life in historic Sheffield.
