23"x19" (58x48cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 16x12 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 23x19 inches (584x482mm). 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 print titled "Chicago: Street Scene, 1941" takes us back in time to the vibrant streets of the South Side of Chicago. The image captures a group of people gathered outside an apartment building, offering a glimpse into daily life during that era. The scene is filled with a sense of community as men, women, and children stand together on the sidewalk. Their expressions reveal a mix of curiosity, camaraderie, and perhaps even anticipation for what lies ahead. The diverse group showcases the rich cultural tapestry that defined Chicago's neighborhoods. Photographed by Edwin Rosskam in April 1941 as part of his work for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), this image provides an intimate view into the lives of African Americans living in this particular neighborhood. It serves as a reminder of their resilience and strength amidst challenging times. The architectural details of the apartment building add depth to the photograph, reflecting both its historical significance and its role as a backdrop for everyday interactions between neighbors and friends. This snapshot freezes a moment in time when communities thrived through connection and support. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Granger Art on Demand's collection, we are transported to an era where personal connections were cherished above all else – reminding us that despite our differences or challenges faced today, unity can prevail within any community.
