Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.

Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1880, transports us back in time to the banks of the Nile River in Egypt. The scene unfolds before us as a group of women, dressed in traditional Egyptian garb, gather around a large, stone basin filled with water. They are engaged in the arduous task of washing clothes, a daily chore that required considerable effort and dedication. The women work together, each focusing on her own pile of clothes, using simple tools such as wooden paddles and rough cloths to scrub away the dirt and grime. The water in the basin is murky and muddy, reflecting the dust and sediment from the surrounding environment. In the background, we can see the vast expanse of the Nile River, its gentle waves lapping against the shore. The sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene, highlighting the women's determined expressions and the textures of their clothing. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the daily life of Egyptian women during the late 19th century. It is a poignant reminder of the simple yet essential tasks that have shaped human history and continue to connect us to our past. The women in this image, with their strong work ethic and resilience, serve as a testament to the enduring human spirit and the power of community.
