31"x27" (79x69cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 24x20 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 31x27 inches (787x685mm). 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 print showcases the groundbreaking Census Machine of 1890, a remarkable invention by Herman Hollerith. In this image, we witness skilled mathematicians operating the sorting and counting mechanism for the statistical tabulation of the Eleventh U. S. Census. The late 19th century marked a turning point in American history, as technological advancements revolutionized data analysis and processing. Hollerith's ingenious machine enabled efficient calculation and counting like never before, streamlining the census-taking process with unprecedented accuracy. In this snapshot frozen in time, we glimpse into an era where men dedicated their research skills to harnessing the power of machinery for societal progress. The concentration on their faces reflects both their expertise and appreciation for this cutting-edge device that would forever change how information was gathered. It is important to note that while this photograph captures a momentous scientific achievement, it does not mention any commercial use associated with it. Instead, it highlights the brilliance behind Hollerith's invention and its impact on American society during a transformative period at the turn of the century. As we admire this historical artifact from Granger Art on Demand, let us reflect upon how far we have come since then in terms of data collection methods – yet also appreciate those who paved the way for our modern systems through ingenuity and dedication to advancing knowledge.
