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
CHICAGO: NURSE, 1941. A powerful symbol of resilience and progress, this print captures a nurse at Provident Hospital in Chicago, Illinois. In an era marked by racial segregation, Provident Hospital stood as one of the few African-American hospitals with an entirely African-American staff. The photograph was taken by Edwin Rosskam in 1941, showcasing his keen eye for capturing the essence of everyday life. The nurse depicted here is a testament to the unwavering dedication and strength exhibited by African-American healthcare professionals during a time when their contributions were often overlooked or undervalued. Clad in her surgical mask and uniform, she exudes professionalism and compassion as she tends to her patients' needs. This image serves as a reminder of the significant strides made within the medical field towards equality and inclusivity. It stands as a tribute to all those who fought against adversity to provide quality care for their communities. Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable piece from their collection - an invaluable snapshot that encapsulates both historical significance and artistic brilliance.
