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
A glimpse into the lively Saturday night scene at a saloon in Craigsville, Minnesota, captured through the lens of photographer Russell Lee in 1937. This photograph, part of the Farm Security Administration's documentation during the Great Depression era, offers a fascinating snapshot of American daily life and entertainment from that time. In this bustling saloon interior, men and women gather together to unwind after a long week on their farms or in nearby towns. The atmosphere is filled with camaraderie as friends share laughter and stories over glasses of beer. The worn wooden bar stands as a centerpiece, serving as both a gathering place and an escape from the hardships faced by many during those challenging times. Russell Lee's keen eye for detail allows us to observe every aspect of this scene – from the expressions on people's faces to the intricate decor adorning the walls. It is evident that this saloon serves not only as a place for relaxation but also as an important social hub within this close-knit community. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported back to an early evening in 1937 Minnesota – where hardworking individuals sought solace and connection amidst economic uncertainty. Through Lee's lens, we witness firsthand how even during difficult times like the Great Depression, people found ways to come together and find joy in each other's company.
