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 powerful engraving captures the harsh reality faced by women in Whitechapel during the late 19th century. Renouard's detailed depiction of A Salvation Army Shelter for Women reveals a scene that is both haunting and thought-provoking. In this image, we witness a group of weary, poverty-stricken women seeking refuge within the shelter's dormitory. The night has fallen upon them, casting an eerie atmosphere over their tired faces and worn-out bodies. These women find solace in the red receptacles provided by the Salvation Army, which serve as makeshift beds for their exhausted souls. The engraving showcases the desperate conditions these women endure, with hints of death lingering in the air. Strangely juxtaposed against this grim backdrop are images of graves and coffins—an unsettling reminder of mortality amidst their struggle to survive. Despite its unsightly appearance, this shelter stands as an offshoot of humanity's support system—a beacon of hope for those who have been driven to despair by poverty and hardship. It offers a momentary respite from life's hardships while raising questions about society's responsibility towards its most vulnerable members. Through his artistry, Renouard invites us to contemplate themes such as peace, charity, and repose amid London's bustling streets. This engraving serves as a testament to both the tireless work carried out by organizations like The Salvation Army and our collective duty to uplift those who find themselves on society's fringes.
