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 from the STEAM Museum of the GWR takes us back to a quaint corner of Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire in July 1926. The image showcases a picturesque scene where time seems to stand still. Nestled on the corner of a road stands an enchanting thatched cottage, exuding charm and character. In this snapshot frozen in history, our attention is drawn towards two figures who bring life to the serene setting. A woman wearing an elegant 1920s style hat and cape captures our gaze as she gazes intently towards a man standing nearby. Her attire reflects the fashion trends of the era, evoking nostalgia for a bygone era. The man carries a satchel, perhaps hinting at his purposeful journey through this idyllic village. His presence adds intrigue to the composition, leaving us curious about their connection or what lies beyond their immediate surroundings. This publicity view not only highlights Princes Risborough's natural beauty but also serves as a window into daily life during this period. It invites us to imagine strolling along its streets and experiencing firsthand the tranquility and simplicity that defined rural England nearly a century ago. As we admire this historical gem captured by GWR's lens, it reminds us of how photography can transport us across time and space while preserving precious moments for generations to come.
