23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 captures a piece of history in the form of a homework book from 1927. The writing and geography map within belong to Antoinette Biron, an 11 ½-year-old student in the second middle class. The cover features the Propatria brand and an engraving depicting Vercingetorix on horseback jumping over a Roman soldier, symbolizing resistance against colonization.
The notebook spans from July 2nd to July 28th, providing a glimpse into the educational practices of the early twentieth century. The meticulous measurements of 22.5 x 17.5 cm showcase the care put into this school supply.
The vibrant colors and intricate details highlight the importance placed on education during this time period. As Antoinette diligently completes her assignments, she is unknowingly creating a historical artifact that now serves as a window into past learning methods.
This image not only represents academic pursuits but also reflects the colonial influences present in French territories at that time. It is a reminder of how education has evolved over generations while also shedding light on societal norms and values prevalent in Europe during the mid-20th century.
Overall, this print is more than just a visual representation; it is a testament to resilience, knowledge acquisition, and cultural exchange encapsulated within one small notebook from decades ago.
