Danger Huty 16177 Park Safety Weather One Senior Man
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 Hyde Park around 1930, we witness a moment frozen in time that serves as a stark reminder of the perils of nature. The image showcases a man employed by the Royal Humane Society diligently placing a warning sign amidst the danger lurking on the frozen Serpentine. As he carefully positions the sign, his belt adorned with cork floats stands out against his weathered attire - an essential safety measure to protect him from potential mishaps as the ice begins to thaw. The lone figure depicted is none other than a senior gentleman, embodying wisdom and experience. His presence reinforces our understanding of how crucial it is to exercise caution when confronted with unpredictable weather conditions. With icy patches dotting the surface beneath him, one can't help but feel both admiration for his commitment to public safety and trepidation at what lies ahead. This powerful snapshot encapsulates not only an important historical moment but also serves as a timeless symbol of vigilance and responsibility towards others. It reminds us that even within serene park settings like Hyde Park, dangers may lurk beneath seemingly tranquil surfaces. As viewers gaze upon this thought-provoking scene captured by Keystone photographers, they are compelled to reflect on their own actions and choices when faced with potentially hazardous situations – ultimately reinforcing the importance of prioritizing safety above all else.
