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.

DROUGHT REFUGEE, 1936. Oklahoma drought refugees in Blythe, California
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This poignant photograph captures the harsh reality of the Great Depression era in America. Taken by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in 1936, it depicts a group of Oklahoma drought refugees who have sought shelter in Blythe, California. The image showcases a family huddled together outside their makeshift camp, surrounded by barren landscapes that reflect the devastating effects of the Dust Bowl and prolonged drought. A weary-looking father stands tall beside his wife and baby boy while a group of unidentified men and women gather nearby. The mother tenderly breastfeeds her infant son, embodying both love and resilience amidst their struggle for survival. Their faces reveal disappointment and sadness as they confront the hardships imposed upon them by poverty and displacement. Lange's photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the desperation faced by working-class families during this period. It also highlights the efforts made by government initiatives like the Farm Security Administration (FSA) under President Roosevelt's New Deal to provide assistance to those affected. As we gaze at this historical snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of how far society has come since then but also how important it is to remember our past struggles. This print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to connect with these forgotten voices from an earlier era - reminding us never to take our present circumstances for granted.
