17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
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 the aftermath of the devastating San Francisco Earthquake that struck on April 18,1906. In the midst of destruction and chaos, a remarkable sight emerges - a lion statue standing tall amidst the rubble. The image, taken by Arnold Genthe in April 1906, showcases both the resilience of this majestic creature and the city it represents. The lion statue becomes a symbol of strength and endurance as it remains intact despite its surroundings being reduced to ruins. Its presence amidst the debris serves as a reminder that even in times of great turmoil, there is still beauty to be found. Genthe's photograph not only documents the physical devastation caused by this natural disaster but also captures an important moment in American history. It offers us a glimpse into early 20th-century San Francisco - a bustling city filled with grand buildings and architectural marvels. As we gaze upon this haunting image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how quickly life can change. The crumbling staircase nearby further emphasizes the magnitude of destruction brought upon by nature's fury. In summary, this powerful print from Granger Art on Demand encapsulates both tragedy and hope within its frame. It reminds us that even amid ruinous circumstances, there is always potential for rebirth and renewal.
