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 print captures a haunting scene from the Clones Road customs post in Ulster on the last day of 1956. The image, taken by Charles Hewitt for Picture Post, showcases the aftermath of a violent conflict that plagued Northern Ireland during this period. The photograph reveals a police station with its windows shattered and damaged by bullets. The pane of glass stands as a testament to the sustained turmoil experienced in this region. In this portrait format, we see the remnants of war etched onto every inch of the frame. The absence of people in this image adds an eerie quality to it, emphasizing the desolation and destruction caused by ongoing conflicts. Through Hewitt's lens, we are transported back to a time when tensions ran high and violence was an unfortunate reality. The presence of the Northern Ireland flag hanging proudly amidst such devastation serves as a poignant reminder of resilience and identity amidst chaos. This archival piece not only documents history but also evokes emotions tied to loss, struggle, and hope. Displayed against a backdrop of European landscapes seen through the windowpane, this print is more than just an artistic representation; it encapsulates an era defined by conflict while preserving its significance for future generations to reflect upon.
