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 captures a momentous occasion at the Commodore Cinema in Orpington, Kent, back in 1933. The image takes us back to the vibrant atmosphere of the 1930s, between the wars, when cinema was booming as a popular form of entertainment. The scene is filled with anticipation and excitement as men gather for a ceremonial event. The focal point of this photograph is undoubtedly the grand curtain that hangs behind them, ready to be unveiled for what promises to be an unforgettable cinematic experience. The composition exudes elegance and sophistication, transporting us to an era where attention to detail was paramount. Photographer John Topham skillfully captures not only the physical setting but also manages to convey a sense of importance surrounding this opening ceremony. One can almost feel the palpable energy in the air as these men come together for this significant event. As we gaze upon this monochrome masterpiece from TopFoto's collection, it serves as a reminder of how photography has preserved moments frozen in time. It allows us today to appreciate and reflect on historical milestones such as this one – moments that shaped our cultural heritage and continue to inspire generations
