1930s Historic Nostalgia Past Thirties Views
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 to the bustling streets of London in the 1930s. In this nostalgic snapshot, we are transported to the West End, where a white coal cart is seen delivering Coalite, a popular smokeless fuel of that era. The image beautifully captures a moment frozen in time, offering us a glimpse into the past and evoking feelings of both curiosity and admiration. The contrast between the pristine white cart and its surroundings creates an intriguing visual impact. As we observe this historic scene, our minds wander through the busy streets filled with horse-drawn carriages and men in flat caps going about their daily routines. It reminds us of an era when coal was not only essential for heating homes but also played a significant role in powering industries across London. Anthony Wallace's expert composition allows us to appreciate every detail within this photograph; from the intricate design on the cart itself to the expressions on people's faces as they pass by. This image serves as a reminder of how much has changed over time while simultaneously celebrating our connection to history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from The Northcliffe Collection, it is impossible not to feel transported back in time - immersed in an atmosphere brimming with thirties nostalgia and captivated by glimpses into everyday life during one of London's most iconic decades.
