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
In this photograph taken in 1926, we are transported back to a pivotal moment in British history - the General Strike. The image showcases a group of dedicated railway workers who volunteered their time and efforts during this tumultuous period. With determination etched on their faces, these men embody the spirit of resilience and unity that defined the era. The composition is strikingly powerful, capturing the essence of hard work and camaraderie against a backdrop of rail tracks stretching into the distance. Each detail tells a story - from the worn-out tools clutched tightly by calloused hands to the sweat-soaked brows glistening under dim light. It is evident that these individuals were driven by an unwavering commitment to keep Britain's railways running amidst widespread industrial unrest. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, it serves as a reminder of how ordinary people can rise above adversity when faced with extraordinary circumstances. Their selflessness shines through, symbolizing not only their dedication to their profession but also their loyalty to one another. Preserved for posterity by Central Press/Getty Images, this print allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its historical significance. It stands as an enduring testament to those unsung heroes who labored tirelessly behind-the-scenes during times of crisis – reminding us that even in our darkest moments, there is always hope found within collective action and solidarity.
