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.

CENTRAL PARK, 1942 - A Glimpse into New York City's Past
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph transports us back to the year 1942, offering a nostalgic glimpse into the vibrant atmosphere of Central Park in Manhattan. Taken by Marjory Collins, an American photographer known for her insightful documentation of everyday life during that era, this image captures a moment outside the iconic Central Park restaurant. In this bustling scene, we see men and women strolling along the park's pathways, enjoying their leisurely time amidst the tranquil surroundings. Some individuals are seated on a bench while others walk briskly or engage in conversation with unidentified companions. One man catches our attention as he sits comfortably on the bench, puffing away at his pipe - perhaps finding solace in its soothing smoke. The presence of pigeons adds an element of charm to this snapshot from history. These graceful birds freely roam around pedestrians who pass them by without much notice. The uniformed figures passing through also hint at the military influence prevalent during World War II. Marjory Collins' lens beautifully captures not only people but also moments frozen in time - moments that evoke feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about life in mid-20th century New York City. This print serves as a reminder of how Central Park has always been a cherished escape for city dwellers seeking respite from urban chaos throughout generations.
