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 woodcut print from the 16th century showcases a group of women diligently sorting iron ore, providing a rare glimpse into the laborious work of female workers in the steel industry during that time period. The intricate details and expressions on their faces convey a sense of dedication and focus as they carry out their tasks.
The historical significance of this image is further emphasized by its inclusion in Otto Johannsen's "Geschichte des Eisens" (History of Iron), published in 1925. This illustration serves as a visual representation of the vital role that women played in the manufacturing industry centuries ago, challenging traditional gender roles and stereotypes.
As we reflect on this scene from the past, we are reminded of the resilience and strength exhibited by these women who paved the way for future generations to enter professions traditionally dominated by men. Their contribution to shaping history through their hard work and determination should not be overlooked or forgotten.
This black-and-white woodcut print serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of recognizing and honoring the often unsung heroes who have made significant contributions to various industries throughout history. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of women workers who have helped shape our world.
