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.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This iconic photograph captures a powerful moment in the heart of New York City during World War II. The scene unfolds on Mott Street, located in the vibrant neighborhood of Little Italy. It is 1942, and a flag raising ceremony is taking place to honor the brave men from this close-knit community who have enlisted in the United States Army. The image beautifully portrays the unity and patriotism that permeated through every corner of America during this tumultuous time. As ticker tape flutters down from above, an unidentified group of men proudly hoist the American flag high into the sky against a backdrop of tenement buildings. Photographed by Marjory Collins, her lens expertly captures both the grandeur and intimacy of this event. From fire escapes adorned with spectators to Italian banners hanging off windowsills, every detail tells a story about life on Mott Street at that particular moment in history. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded not only of New York's resilience but also its diverse cultural fabric. This photograph serves as a testament to how communities came together to support their fellow countrymen fighting for freedom overseas. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this precious piece of history so that future generations can appreciate and reflect upon these moments that shaped our nation's identity.
