Cornish Tin Mines mounted foamex print - lightweight, contemporary and available up to 18in x 12in.
The subdued tones and historic context make this image well suited to interiors that favour understated character and natural texture. Ideal for living rooms, studies, or hallways, it complements neutral palettes and both modern and traditional décor, adding depth without overpowering the space.
Poldice Mine, located near the hamlet of Todpool in Cornwall, has a long industrial history dating back to the early 1500s. Over several centuries, the site produced tin, copper, and later arsenic, reflecting Cornwall’s importance in Britain’s mining heritage. By the early 20th century, operations had ceased, leaving behind a landscape shaped by extraction and industry. Today, the remains form part of the wider Cornish mining legacy, where scattered structures and altered ground still mark the presence of past activity.
Low stone and concrete remains sit within open ground, surrounded by rough vegetation and patches of heather. Under a heavy, overcast sky, the muted colours and soft light emphasise the textures of the terrain, while the composition keeps the focus on the quiet remnants of the site.
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.

The attention to detail is above expectations. I'm thrilled with what Carol has done, I will be purchasing again. Thank you
The absolute perfect image, promptly dispatched, swiftly received. Highly delighted customer. Thank you very much indeed Carol.
I'm absolutely made up with the print I received from Real World Art. I went for the Koi Carp image - It's very evocative and they've totally captured the serenity you feel watching Koi. You can almost hear the babbling water! What's more, it's a top quality print, pin-sharp and looks great framed up. Couldn't recommend them any higher.. lovely to deal with.. thank you.
Loved this image of our wedding day and was appropriate for our anniversary too...
Thrilled to bits with the picture , better than expected
Brilliant experience and service, we have the Highland Cow framed print, my other half being a lover of cattle and cows and it looks incredible on our picture wall! Thanks Again!!
