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 in time to the picturesque Grouville Bay, captured from the Golf Course in Jersey during the 1920s. A masterpiece of GWR publicity, it showcases the breathtaking beauty of this Channel Island gem. The view is simply enchanting, with Mont Orgueil Castle majestically standing tall on the right side of the frame. Its ancient walls seem to whisper tales of centuries past. Long Beach gracefully curves around, inviting visitors to take a leisurely stroll along its sandy shores. The crystal-clear waters glisten under the warm sunlight, beckoning swimmers and water enthusiasts alike. In the foreground lies Fort Henry, an impressive fortification that adds a touch of historical grandeur to this idyllic scene. Transported back in time by this image, one can almost feel the gentle sea breeze and hear echoes of laughter from golfers enjoying their game on this scenic course. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also evokes a sense of tranquility and serenity that has drawn people to Jersey for generations. As we admire this vintage snapshot through modern eyes, we are reminded that some things never change – nature's beauty endures while history stands as a testament to our shared heritage.
