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 photo print, titled "Sugar bags hanging out to dry, North Quay, West India Docks, 1900" takes us back in time to the bustling streets of London at the turn of the 20th century. The image showcases a scene filled with architectural marvels and hints at the thriving business and commerce that once defined this vibrant city. In this snapshot from history, we see rows upon rows of sugar bags suspended high above the ground on lines strung between buildings. These large sacks are left out to dry under the open sky, creating a unique sight against the backdrop of Victorian-era warehouses and storage facilities. The people going about their daily lives add an element of human connection to this industrial landscape. They provide scale and context for just how massive these structures were compared to ordinary individuals navigating through London's busy streets. As we delve into this photograph further, it becomes clear that it captures not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an era when Britain was at its peak as a global trading power. The West India Docks served as vital hubs for international trade during this period, handling vast quantities of goods like sugar that fueled both local consumption and exports. Through Archive's lens, we are transported back in time to witness a glimpse into London's past – where architecture meets industry amidst everyday life in one of Europe's most iconic cities.
