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 transports us back to the 19th century, where we witness a poignant scene unfolding in a bustling public soup kitchen. The engraving, titled "Public Soup Kitchen" was created by Edward Hull and published in The Illustrated Times on December 18,1858. It now resides in a private collection. The image captures the harsh realities of poverty and hunger that plagued society during this era. A diverse group of individuals can be seen gathered around long wooden tables, eagerly awaiting their turn to receive nourishment from this charitable establishment. Their faces tell stories of hardship and despair, yet there is also a glimmer of hope shining through their eyes. The artist's attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves in the scene; we can almost smell the comforting aroma wafting from steaming bowls of soup being served by dedicated volunteers. This powerful depiction serves as both an indictment of societal inequalities and a plea for compassion towards those less fortunate. Through this evocative artwork, Bridgeman Images reminds us not only of our shared humanity but also highlights the importance of charity and empathy towards those facing adversity. It serves as a timeless reminder that even amidst struggle, acts of kindness have the power to bring solace and restore dignity. As we gaze upon this historical gem captured by Hull's skilled hand, let it serve as an inspiration for all generations to come – urging us to extend our hands with love and support towards those who need it most.
