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 print captures the essence of the Great Depression in a single frame. Created by renowned American cartoonist Otto Soglow, this powerful image depicts a capitalist hanging from a rope shaped like the year 1929, symbolizing the devastating Stock Market crash that triggered one of the darkest periods in American history. The cartoon cleverly portrays the collision between capitalism and economic turmoil during this early 20th century crisis. The use of a noose as a metaphor for suicide highlights the desperation and despair felt by many individuals who lost everything in the aftermath of Black Tuesday. Soglow's artistic prowess is evident in his ability to convey complex political acts through simple yet impactful illustrations. By focusing on Wall Street, where financial powerhouses once stood tall but now lay shattered, he draws attention to how commerce and finance were at the heart of this catastrophic event. As we reflect upon this historical moment captured within these frames, it serves as a reminder that even mighty structures can crumble under economic pressure. This artwork invites us to contemplate not only past events but also their relevance today, urging us to question our own systems and strive for resilience in times of crisis.
