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 a pivotal moment in British cinema history - Karel Reiszs' iconic documentary "We Are The Lambeth Boys" from 1959. Set against the backdrop of Oval, Lambeth in South London, this snapshot captures a group of spirited young boys engaged in animated conversation. Their lively expressions and animated gestures reveal their enthusiasm for life and their vibrant community. While the title suggests an exclusive focus on boys, what truly makes this image remarkable is the inclusion of girls amidst the group. Breaking traditional gender norms, these confident young women challenge societal expectations by actively participating in discussions alongside their male counterparts. This subtle yet powerful statement speaks volumes about equality and empowerment during a time when such notions were still evolving. Reisz's documentary aimed to shed light on the lives of working-class youth living in post-war Britain. By capturing candid moments like this one, he offered an authentic glimpse into their daily struggles and triumphs within Lambeth's close-knit community. As we gaze upon this oval-shaped photograph, we are transported back to a different era - one filled with hope, resilience, and youthful energy. It serves as a reminder that even amidst challenging circumstances, unity can be found through shared experiences and open dialogue. The British Film Institute proudly presents this extraordinary print as part of its collection; it stands as both a testament to Reisz's groundbreaking work and an enduring symbol of social change within South London's Lambeth district.
