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 takes us back to the charming Creux Harbour in Sark, a hidden gem nestled along the eastern coast of the Channel Islands. Captured in 1925 by GWR as part of their publicity campaign, this view showcases the timeless beauty of this coastal haven. The scene is alive with small boats gently swaying on the calm waters, gracefully moored up within the protective embrace of the harbour walls. The photograph transports us to an era when life moved at a slower pace, where fishermen would set sail from these very shores in search of their daily catch. The rugged coastline stretches out beyond our sightline, its jagged cliffs standing tall against crashing waves that have weathered them for centuries. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can almost feel the salty breeze brushing against our cheeks and hear seagulls calling out overhead. It is a moment that encapsulates both tranquility and adventure – a reminder of simpler times when nature's beauty was cherished above all else. This vintage print serves as a testament to Sark's enduring allure; it invites us to explore its narrow streets lined with quaint cottages and discover hidden coves tucked away from prying eyes. Let your imagination wander as you immerse yourself in this nostalgic glimpse into Creux Harbour's past – an invitation to embark on your own journey through time and space.
