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 captures a moment of intense conflict during the Belfast strike of July 1907. In this powerful image, a traction engine has been transformed into a symbol of resistance as it becomes the "Horse de combat" (Battle Horse) of the striking dockers and the Royal Irish Constabulary. The scene is filled with tension and drama, as steam billows from the engine's chimney, creating an ethereal atmosphere. The imposing presence of the male figures surrounding the machine adds to its significance as a representation of strength and defiance. The composition highlights both sides of this labor dispute - on one hand, we see members of law enforcement in their distinctive uniforms, standing firm against those fighting for better working conditions. On the other hand, there are workers united in their struggle for fair treatment. This historical photograph serves as a reminder not only of past social unrest but also speaks to broader themes such as power dynamics between employers and employees, class struggles, and societal change. It offers us a glimpse into an important moment in British history when ordinary people fought for their rights amidst challenging circumstances. As we contemplate this image today, it prompts us to reflect on how far we have come in terms of workers' rights while acknowledging that there is still work to be done to ensure fairness and equality in our society.
