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 print from December 23rd, 1959, we witness a moment of transformation for Maria Eugenia Ibarra. Standing tall and poised, Maria is being fitted out with an air hostess uniform by a BOAC supplies officer. The image exudes the timeless elegance and glamour associated with the golden age of aviation. Maria's eyes sparkle with anticipation as she prepares to embark on her journey down south. Her neatly styled hair frames her face, accentuating her confident smile. The meticulous attention to detail in her uniform showcases the professionalism that was expected of air hostesses during this era. This photograph captures a significant milestone in Maria's life as she takes on the role of an air hostess – a position that symbolized adventure, sophistication, and impeccable service. It represents not only an individual's personal achievement but also reflects the broader cultural shift towards women assuming prominent roles within the airline industry. The image serves as a poignant reminder of how far we have come since then – where women like Maria were pioneers breaking barriers in traditionally male-dominated fields. It stands as a testament to their courage and determination to pursue their dreams despite societal expectations. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot frozen in time, it evokes nostalgia for an era when flying was considered glamorous and enchanting—a time when every flight held promises of new horizons and unforgettable experiences.
