Overall Framed Dimension is 400mm x 1050mm
'A Place for Us' depicts a moonlit scene of a winding river, with embankments boasting all sorts of different trees, lush plants and flowers, as well as delicately beautiful insect-life. In this piece, Margaret marks the progression through all four seasons as the river winds over the horizon, and, embellished in her signature style, the piece has real depth and resonance, as it draws you in along the path of a river that travels into the scenery, and through the year.
This is a one-off printed piece with original embellishments by the artist. It is created by Margaret Hughlock as part of a series of eight. Each piece is framed using the 69mm Hockney frame of your choice, and is unglazed to leave the texture of the surface of the piece exposed, as was intended by the artist.

Product Specification
Product Specification
We use 2mm cast acrylic, which is visually indistinguishable from glass and virtually unbreakable.
We specifically do not use styrene, as, though cheaper, it is normally only 1mm thick, offers far less support, and goes yellow over time.
We use MDF backboard for strength. As MDF is a wood product, it can contain acids. To safeguard against these leeching out and affecting your print, we insert an acid free sheet of conservation barrier board between the back and print.
All of our prints are delivered ready to hang.
