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 powerful photograph captures the harsh reality of child labor in early 20th century America. Taken by Lewis Hine in 1924, it depicts a young worker at the Cheney Silk Mills in South Manchester, Connecticut. The girl's solemn expression and tired eyes speak volumes about the difficult conditions she endures as part of the working class. The image showcases an interior shot of the factory, with machinery surrounding the teenage girl who remains unidentified. Her youth is starkly contrasted against the industrial backdrop, highlighting society's exploitation of children for cheap labor during this era. Hine was renowned for his documentary photography that aimed to expose social injustices like child labor. Through his lens, he shed light on the plight of these young workers and played a significant role in advocating for their rights. In sepia tones, this print serves as a poignant reminder of our past and reminds us how far we have come in protecting children's rights. It stands as a testament to both resilience and progress while urging us to remain vigilant against any form of exploitation or injustice that may still persist today.
