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 print showcases the iconic poster for Fritz Lang's groundbreaking film, Metropolis (1927), courtesy of the British Film Institute. The image captures the essence of this cinematic masterpiece that continues to inspire and influence filmmakers even after nearly a century since its release. The poster itself is a work of art, with its striking design and bold typography. It perfectly encapsulates the futuristic dystopian world depicted in the film, where towering skyscrapers dominate an industrial landscape. The grid iron building featured prominently on the poster serves as a symbol of power and oppression, reflecting the themes explored within Metropolis. Fritz Lang's visionary direction combined with innovative special effects made Metropolis a landmark achievement in silent cinema. This influential German expressionist film explores social inequality, class struggle, and human nature against an awe-inspiring backdrop. Its timeless message resonates even today as we grapple with similar issues in our own society. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing photo print, we are transported back to 1927 when audiences first experienced Lang's visionary creation on screen. It reminds us of cinema's ability to transcend time and space while leaving an indelible mark on our collective imagination. Thanks to the British Film Institute's dedication to preserving cinematic history, this stunning photograph allows us to appreciate not only Lang's masterpiece but also pays homage to all those involved in bringing such extraordinary works of art into existence.
