23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 sepia-toned portrait takes us back to the bustling streets of Salt Lake City, Utah, in the late 19th century. The focal point of this image is the iconic Town Clock Store, proudly operated by S. Cooper & Brother for Zions Co-operative Mercantile Institution (ZCMI). Established in 1868 by the Mormon Church, ZCMI held the distinction of being America's first department store. The photograph showcases a snapshot of daily life during that era. A group of men and boys can be seen standing outside the shopfront, perhaps engrossed in conversation or eagerly awaiting their turn inside. The presence of these individuals highlights not only the significance of this establishment but also its role as a gathering place within the community. The attention to detail is remarkable; every element contributes to an authentic portrayal of history frozen in time. From intricate tools displayed on shelves to a prominent sign proudly bearing "ZCMI" each aspect reflects an era defined by craftsmanship and dedication. Otto Herschan's masterful composition captures both architectural beauty and historical importance with precision. Through his lens, we are transported back to an era where small businesses thrived amidst rapid urbanization. As we admire this print today, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic appeal but also recognize it as a testament to human ingenuity and resilience—a reminder that even amid change, certain landmarks endure as symbols of community strength and unity.
