Cornish Heritage mounted foamex print - lightweight, contemporary and available up to 18in x 12in.
Framed by tall trees, this woodland scene with hidden ruins creates a calm and immersive focal point suited to nature-led interiors. Ideal for living rooms, bedrooms, or studies, it pairs well with natural materials and neutral tones, adding a sense of depth and quiet.
The Kennall Vale Nature Reserve is a very well-hidden valley between Redruth and Falmouth, Cornwall. It was the site of the Kennall Vale gunpowder factory which started production about 1812 and supplied the local Cornish mines, employing about 50 men by 1850. When more sophisticated explosives came onto the market in the 1880s, the factory declined before closing in the early 1900s.
In May 1838 'Five mills blew up in succession, and part of a roof was found a mile from' the premises. The reports were most terrific and created the greatest alarm over an extensive tract of country'. Amazingly only one man lost his life.
The vertical lines of the trunks frame the structure, while soft light filters through the canopy above. The composition creates depth through layers of vegetation, guiding the eye toward the ruin.
Enjoy a premium photographic print with three paper options, each designed to suit different lighting conditions and artistic preferences:
Each print is mounted onto black, 3mm Foamex - an ultra-durable, moisture-resistant PVC substrate that remains lightweight yet rigid. Perfect for displaying on an easel or mounting with the included Velcro strips, without the need for framing.
Supplied without a border unless otherwise specified.
Optional lamination is available in satin or gloss to match your selected paper, providing extra protection against moisture and handling. However, lamination is not recommended for Fine Art Matt paper, as it will obscure its authentic texture.
