Media ID 13145440
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 showcases the magnificent exterior view of brake composite carriage no. 6583, a true gem built to diagram E146 in 1933. A testament to the craftsmanship and engineering prowess of the Great Western Railway (GWR), this vintage beauty stands as a symbol of an era long gone. With its sleek lines and elegant design, this brake composite carriage exudes timeless charm. The attention to detail is evident in every inch, from the meticulously crafted windows to the ornate metalwork adorning its exterior. This carriage was undoubtedly a sight to behold as it glided along the tracks, transporting passengers with comfort and style. Stepping into this piece of history would have been like entering another world; one filled with plush seats, polished wood paneling, and an air of sophistication that only GWR could provide. Passengers would have marveled at the panoramic views through large windows while enjoying a smooth ride thanks to cutting-edge braking technology. Preserved within STEAM Museum's collection, this photograph allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when train travel was not just about getting from point A to B but also about experiencing luxury on wheels. It serves as a reminder of how far we've come in terms of transportation while honoring the legacy left behind by GWR - an icon in railway history.
