Photo Noir Et Blanc Plan General Balayeur Gare Nettoyage Voyageur
17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, taken in 1935, transports us back to a time when holiday departures were filled with anticipation and excitement. The image captures the bustling scene at Gare du Nord railway station in Paris, as people from all walks of life arrive to embark on their much-awaited vacations. The grandeur of the train station's hall is evident in this general plan shot, showcasing its architectural beauty and vastness. Amidst the hustle and bustle, we catch a glimpse of an employee diligently performing his cleaning duties, ensuring that every corner remains spotless for the travelers' convenience. The timeless charm of this photograph lies not only in its monochromatic palette but also in the sense of unity it portrays. Travelers from different backgrounds come together under one roof, bound by their shared desire for adventure and exploration. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the enduring appeal of rail travel - a mode of transport that has connected people across distances for centuries. This particular moment captured by Agence France-Presse (AFP) serves as a testament to France's rich transportation history while evoking nostalgia for simpler times when holidays were embarked upon with great enthusiasm. Without mentioning any commercial use or specific company involved, this print invites us to reflect on our own experiences with travel and ignites our imagination about what stories these holiday-bound voyagers might have had waiting for them at their destinations.
