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 photograph captures a poignant moment in history at Ellis Island, the gateway to America for millions of immigrants. Taken around 1910 by Augustus Sherman, it showcases a Dutch mother and her two daughters who have just arrived on American soil. Dressed in traditional attire, the trio stands against the backdrop of Ellis Island's exterior. The mother exudes strength and determination as she gazes into the camera with a hint of hope in her eyes. Her daughters, adorned in delicate bonnets and dresses, cling to their mother's side, perhaps seeking comfort amidst the uncertainty that lies ahead. This image is a testament to the countless families who embarked on arduous journeys from distant lands in search of better lives. It symbolizes their resilience and unwavering spirit as they embraced new beginnings while holding onto their cultural heritage. In sepia tones that evoke nostalgia for an era long gone, this portrait transports us back to turn-of-the-century America when immigration was transforming the nation's landscape. The unidentified women become representative figures for all those who passed through Ellis Island during this transformative period. As we reflect upon this photograph today, let us remember the sacrifices made by our ancestors and honor their legacy by embracing diversity and welcoming those who seek refuge or opportunity within our borders.
