Backdrop Telegraph Unidentified
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 from the late 19th century showcases a young American Telegraph Boy, exuding an air of confidence and determination. The original cabinet print beautifully captures the essence of this era, transporting us back to a time when telegraphy was at its peak. Standing tall in his uniform, complete with a cap and distinctive clothing, the boy epitomizes the turn-of-the-century charm. The backdrop adds an intriguing touch to the portrait, hinting at a bustling cityscape or perhaps even a telegraph office where he diligently carried out his duties. Although unidentified by name or company affiliation, this enigmatic figure represents countless individuals who played crucial roles in connecting people across vast distances through their work as telegraph boys. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of how technology has evolved over time and how these unsung heroes were instrumental in shaping our modern world. This photograph serves as both a historical artifact and an artistic masterpiece that transports us back to America's vibrant past.
