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
In this photograph from 1890, we are transported back to a bygone era of American advertising. The image showcases a hardworking chimney sweep diligently cleaning away soot and grime, while proudly wearing his apron as a badge of honor. This advertisement for Pears Soap captures the essence of domestic hygiene during the late 19th century. The scene is set in a bustling household, with the woman of the house overseeing her daily chores. As she flips through a magazine, her attention is drawn to this striking visual representation of cleanliness and purity. The mop in hand symbolizes not only the physical labor involved but also highlights the importance placed on maintaining an immaculate home environment. This turn-of-the-century advertisement serves as a reminder that even amidst busy lives and demanding work schedules, personal hygiene should never be compromised. Pears Soap emerges as an essential companion for every hardworking individual striving to maintain cleanliness in their homes. The Granger Collection's print beautifully captures this historical moment, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry and cultural significance behind such advertisements from yesteryears. It transports us back in time when soap was more than just an everyday necessity; it represented progress, modernity, and aspirations towards better living conditions for all Americans.
