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 photograph captures a moment in the silk manufacturing industry of Lebanon, showcasing the intricate process of feeding silk-worms their breakfast of mulberry leaves. Taken in Mt. Lebanon, Syria around 1913, this sepia-toned image provides a glimpse into the early days of silk production. In this interior setting, we witness young workers diligently tending to these delicate creatures that play a crucial role in creating luxurious silk fabric. The child labor evident in the photograph serves as a reminder of the challenges faced by working-class individuals during that time period. The composition and lighting evoke a sense of tranquility and dedication as these workers carefully nurture each silkworm cocoon. Their hands delicately place fresh mulberry leaves before them, ensuring they receive proper nourishment for their growth and transformation into exquisite threads. This stereograph from Granger Art on Demand offers us an opportunity to appreciate not only the artistry involved in capturing such moments but also the historical significance behind it. It reminds us of how human ingenuity has harnessed nature's wonders to create beautiful textiles throughout centuries. As we gaze upon this photo print, let us reflect on both the beauty and complexity inherent within our global textile industries while acknowledging those who have contributed their skills and labor to bring forth such remarkable creations like fine silk fabrics.
