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, taken by Lewis Hine in 1905, transports us back to the early days of Ellis Island immigration station in New York City. The image depicts an unidentified Armenian Jew who has just arrived at Ellis Island, his face etched with a mix of anticipation and weariness. Dressed in traditional attire, this man stands out amidst the bustling crowd. His long beard and hat symbolize both his religious identity and cultural heritage. Clutching a card that holds his fate, he anxiously awaits inspection by immigration officials. Hine's lens captures not only the physical presence of this immigrant but also the emotional weight carried by those seeking refuge on American shores. It serves as a poignant reminder of the countless stories woven into the fabric of America's history. The photograph is part of the Carousel Collection, which showcases Hine's remarkable ability to capture humanity through portraiture during this era. Each face tells its own tale – tales filled with hope, resilience, and dreams for a better future. As we gaze upon this powerful image today, let us remember that behind every statistic lies an individual story waiting to be heard. This Armenian Jew represents thousands who embarked on perilous journeys in search of freedom and opportunity. Their legacy lives on within our nation's diverse tapestry - a testament to their courage and determination against all odds.
