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.

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.

The Hand of a Young Worker Trapped in the Millstone - A Testament to Labor and Faith
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The hand of a young worker is caught in a millstone" captures a poignant moment from the 19th century. The unknown artist skillfully portrays the harrowing incident that occurred within the confines of an industrial mill. In this scene, we witness the hand of a young laborer tragically ensnared by the unforgiving machinery. The image serves as both a reminder of the dangers faced by workers during that era and an homage to their unwavering dedication. What makes this artwork particularly intriguing is its religious undertone. Positioned prominently in the background is an exquisitely painted depiction of Virgin Mary, symbolizing hope and divine intervention amidst adversity. This inclusion suggests that faith played an integral role in providing solace to those facing hardships on their arduous journey through life. Furthermore, this piece can be interpreted as a votive offering or prayer for protection against accidents within hazardous work environments. It serves as a visual testament to both laborers' resilience and their reliance on spirituality during challenging times. Giancarlo Costa's masterful capture breathes life into this historical event with vibrant colors and meticulous detail on canvas. As we gaze upon it today, let us reflect upon how far we have come in ensuring safe working conditions while acknowledging those who paved the way for progress through their sacrifices.
