Folly of War
Folly of War, Broadway Tower, Worcestershire, UK
This impressive old castle is not actually a castle nor is it particularly old. Built in the 1790s, it is called a “folly” because well-heeled landowners built these kinds of buildings as part of their landscape design. This one, however, has a spectacular view of the surrounding area including Stratford-upon-Avon and hosted William Morris and other members of the Arts and Crafts movement during the 1800s.

Workmanship and Quality
My matted works are printed on Moab Juniper Baryta 305 paper using Canon Lucia pigment Inks. The matting and backs are conservation quality and are assembled by me (or my wife) with acid-free tapes. This combination has an expected 30-plus year life span without fading or degradation. Framed works, of course, include the same matting. All matted photographs fit in standard sized frames available in many art supply stores and from online retailers.
My frames are exhibition-style Nielsen-Bainbridge anodized aluminum radials, slightly rounded, for a classic look. The glazing is anti-UV acrylic which is lighter and more durable than glass and helps further preserve the image. The hanging hardware is pre-installed. If you compare the price of comparable framing from your local framing store, you will find my pricing to be extremely competitive.
