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 showcases the mesmerizing internal view of a Toad Brake Van, transporting us back in time to the heyday of steam locomotives. The STEAM Museum of the GWR has meticulously preserved this remarkable piece of railway history, allowing us a glimpse into the past. Stepping into this van is like entering a time capsule; every detail tells a story. The worn wooden floorboards bear witness to countless journeys taken by dedicated railway workers. Weathered leather seats provide comfort for those who tirelessly manned these brake vans during their arduous shifts. The atmosphere inside is filled with an air of nostalgia and adventure. Rustic lanterns hang from above, casting warm hues on vintage control panels and gauges that once guided these mighty machines across vast landscapes. Every lever and switch represents years of expertise and dedication required to ensure safe travels along the rails. As we explore further, our eyes are drawn towards shelves lined with tools and equipment – remnants from an era when mechanical ingenuity was paramount. These artifacts serve as a testament to the resourcefulness and skill possessed by those who maintained these vital components of the railway system. This print not only captures an internal view but also immortalizes the spirit of innovation that defined this golden age in rail travel history. It reminds us how far we have come while honoring those who paved the way for modern transportation systems worldwide.
