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 Northcliffe Collection takes us back in time to the bustling London docks during the historic strikes of 1947. With a touch of nostalgia, it offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to witness the city's vibrant streets and magnificent architecture as they were over seven decades ago. The image showcases an annotated view that highlights the significance of this particular moment in history. It serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by dockworkers during this period and their determination to fight for better working conditions. The cranes towering above symbolize both progress and struggle, capturing the essence of an era marked by industrial unrest. As we study this photograph, our imagination is transported to a different time when these docks were at their busiest. We can almost hear the echoes of workers' voices mingling with seagulls' cries while ships unloaded goods from distant lands. The buildings lining the waterfront stand tall, bearing witness to countless stories unfolding within their walls. This print not only captures a specific event but also encapsulates an entire decade's spirit –the forties– characterized by resilience and unity amidst post-war reconstruction efforts. It invites us to reflect on how cities evolve over time while reminding us that behind every street corner lies layers upon layers of history waiting to be discovered
