31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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
In this engraving from the 19th century, we witness the heroic actions of Wood, the fire escape conductor, as he fearlessly rescues a mother and child from a devastating fire in Whitechapel. The intensity of the scene is palpable as flames lick at the building behind them, threatening to engulf all in their path.
Wood's bravery shines through as he carefully guides the mother and child down a makeshift ladder to safety. His face is set with determination, his focus unwavering despite the chaos surrounding them. The mother clutches her child tightly, her expression a mix of fear and gratitude for their unlikely savior.
This image captures not only a moment of peril and rescue but also speaks to themes of community solidarity and selflessness in times of crisis. Wood's actions embody the spirit of heroism that transcends time and place, reminding us of the everyday heroes who emerge in moments of adversity.
As we gaze upon this historical print, we are reminded that courage knows no bounds and that even in our darkest hours, there are those among us who will rise to meet the challenge with unwavering resolve.
