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 print takes us back to the early 1900s, a time when automobiles were still a novelty on the streets of America. The cartoon captures the essence of this era with its humorous depiction of an automobile ride gone awry. In the foreground, we see a well-dressed couple seated in their horse-drawn carriage, looking rather perplexed as they observe a man driving an automobile beside them. The husband holds onto his whip tightly, perhaps fearing that his trusty steeds will be startled by this new contraption. Meanwhile, his wife appears both intrigued and slightly amused by the scene unfolding before her. The artist skillfully portrays the stark contrast between traditional transportation methods and this modern invention. It is evident that automobiles were not yet widely accepted or understood at this point in history. This political cartoon serves as a reminder of how rapidly technology was advancing during the turn of the century and how society had to adapt to these changes. It also highlights some underlying social dynamics, such as gender roles and class distinctions. Overall, this vintage print offers us a glimpse into an era where horses still ruled the roads but where change was on the horizon. It invites us to reflect upon our own relationship with technology and reminds us that progress often comes with its fair share of challenges and humor along the way.
