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 thought-provoking cartoon print from 1992 captures the essence of a critical moment in Estonia's history. Depicting the aftermath of Soviet Union's occupation, the artist Edmund Valtman sheds light on Russia's alleged obfuscation of human rights abuses in Estonia. The cartoon serves as a powerful commentary on the delicate balance between propaganda and truth. Valtman skillfully portrays this complex issue through his meticulous drawing and editorial wit. The image invites viewers to reflect upon the consequences of Russian influence during that time, highlighting their potential manipulation of information to obscure any wrongdoing. With subtle symbolism and clever imagery, Valtman urges us to question whether justice was truly served or if it fell victim to political agendas. The choice of black and white enhances the gravity of this historical event while emphasizing its timeless relevance. As we gaze at this artwork, we are transported back to 1992 when Estonia fought for its independence amidst an atmosphere clouded by propaganda. This Granger Collection print is not just a piece of art; it is a testament to human resilience and our ongoing struggle for truth and justice. It serves as a reminder that even in times when power tries to silence voices, artists like Valtman use their craft as a weapon against oppression.
