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 captures a poignant moment in history - the housing for workers at the Rome Hosiery Mill in Georgia, 1913. The image, taken by Lewis Wickes Hine, showcases the harsh reality of working conditions and exploitation during that time. Hine was an investigative photographer for the National Child Labor Committee, dedicated to shedding light on the plight of children in various industries. From 1908 to 1912, he documented their struggles and brought attention to their exploitation. In this particular photograph, we see a dilapidated wooden shack that served as housing for these workers and their families. It stands as a stark reminder of poverty and destitution faced by many during this era. The image speaks volumes about the hardships endured by these individuals - men, women, and children alike. It serves as a powerful testament to the need for social reform and improved living conditions. As we gaze upon this haunting photograph today, let us remember those who came before us - those who fought tirelessly for better rights and protections for workers everywhere. May it serve as a constant reminder of our duty to create a more equitable society where no one is left behind or forgotten.
