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 takes us back to the 19th century, shedding light on a dark aspect of Victorian society - bullying. Depicting two English public school bullies tormenting their classmate, it serves as a stark reminder that this issue is not new but has plagued generations past. The image showcases the cruelty and aggression prevalent among upper-class adolescence during that era. The monochrome line art adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the pain and grief inflicted upon the helpless victim. One bully restrains him while another uses a red hot poker to decorate his box, symbolizing both physical and emotional violence. Through this illustration by George Cruikshank from Frank E Smedley's "Frank Fairlegh" we witness communication difficulties and relationship problems faced by teenage boys in traditional clothing. It offers an insight into the harsh realities of education and social hierarchies within British culture at that time. Despite its sepia-toned appearance, this print evokes strong emotions even today. It serves as a powerful reminder of how far we have come in addressing issues related to childhood violence and emphasizes our responsibility to create safe environments for future generations. In this old photograph lies an important message - let us learn from history's mistakes so that we may build a more compassionate world for all children.
