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 from December 1926 takes us back in time to the era of the General Strike. In this powerful image, we witness a remarkable sight - lady engine drivers fearlessly taking charge of their steam engine, shoveling coal with determination and skill. Clad in light shoes, these trailblazing women challenge societal norms as they prove that gender is no barrier when it comes to hard work. As the female railway workers carry out their duties, a male colleague stands nearby, observing them with admiration or perhaps surprise. His presence serves as a reminder of the prevailing gender dynamics at that time and highlights the significance of these women's actions during such tumultuous times. The landscape format enhances our immersion into this historical moment, allowing us to appreciate not only the individuals but also the grandeur of their surroundings - an industrial backdrop filled with raw power and untamed energy. Through this evocative photograph by Fox Photos/Getty Images, we are transported back to an era where resilience and unity were paramount. It serves as a testament to both the strength and capability of women who defied expectations while contributing significantly to society's progress. Whether you're an art enthusiast or history buff, this stunning print captures a pivotal moment in time that continues to inspire generations today.
