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 historic photograph, we witness a significant moment in American politics as Mayor of New York, John Thompson Hoffman, warmly greets President Andrew Johnson at Pier 1 in New York on August 29th, 1866. The image captures the essence of a bygone era with its engraving depicting two distinguished gentlemen engaging in a handshake. President Johnson, the 17th President of the United States, stands tall wearing his signature top hat while Mayor Hoffman extends his hand to welcome him. Their meeting symbolizes an important connection between the federal government and one of America's largest cities during this time period. The bustling dock serves as a backdrop for this encounter, reminding us of New York City's status as a major hub for trade and commerce. It is evident that both men are deeply engaged in their roles within American politics; Johnson representing the Democratic Party and Hoffman serving as mayor after previously holding positions such as governor. This image not only captures an intimate moment between these two influential figures but also provides insight into the political climate of mid-19th century America. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand, we are transported back to a time when handshakes held great significance and public receptions played an essential role in shaping our nation's history.
