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 captures a significant moment in the field of dentistry, dating back to 1917. The image showcases a dentist diligently at work on a patient within the confines of a hospital in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Renowned photographer Lewis Hine expertly captured this scene on 1 February 1917, immortalizing the skill and dedication required in early dental practices. The composition reveals an intimate interior setting with various elements that transport us to that era. A nurse stands nearby, ready to assist as needed, while men and women observe attentively from their respective roles within the office. The dentist is seen wearing a hat, symbolizing professionalism and formality during those times. Every detail tells its own story - from the sepia tones adding depth to the photo print, to the presence of tools such as trays and spittoons which were essential for dental procedures at that time. This snapshot serves as both an educational resource for understanding turn-of-the-century dentistry techniques and an appreciation for how far this medical discipline has progressed since then. As we gaze upon this historical image frozen in time by Lewis Hine's lens, we are reminded of the remarkable progress made in dentistry over more than a century. It is through photographs like these that we can gain insight into our past while appreciating modern advancements that have improved oral health care worldwide.
