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 lithograph poster by Ben Shahn, created in 1944 and published by the Political Action Committee of the CIO, serves as a powerful advertisement in support of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's presidential campaign. The image showcases an iconic portrait of FDR with his signature confident smile, exuding warmth and approachability that instantly connects with viewers. The poster's design is simple yet impactful, featuring bold text that reads "Our Friend" beneath the president's image. This slogan reinforces Roosevelt's ability to relate to everyday Americans and positions him as a trusted ally during challenging times. Shahn masterfully captures the essence of middle America through his depiction of diverse men canvassing for their candidate. Their presence symbolizes the broad appeal and grassroots support that FDR enjoyed throughout his political career. Published during a pivotal moment in American history, this lithograph poster not only promotes Roosevelt but also represents the Democratic Party's values and ideals. It encapsulates an era marked by progressivism, social reform, and economic recovery under FDR's leadership. As we reflect on this historical artifact today, it serves as a reminder of how art can be harnessed to shape public opinion and mobilize communities towards a common cause. Shahn's skillful execution combined with its association with labor unions further emphasizes its significance within both artistic and political contexts.
